Hi there and welcome. Your story sounds familiar and sounds like many I've heard about on this website. I have had problems with Diarrhea since I was about 18 (I'm 30 now). I have found so much help in this website and have learned so much it's hard to describe. All I can tell you right now is to educate yourself as much as you can with Heather's books and this website and maybe you can start trying a few different things that will make a difference in your life. Since most of my symptoms are IBS-D I can't help you much with the "C" but I do know the fiber Heather sells has helped many people with both C and D. Just try to re-evaluate the things you are doing and maybe something new you learn here will make you feel a bit better. Hopefully others with IBS-C can offer you some more support.
