You have obviously been digging into the back files! I enjoyed rereading the post, after reading your agreement with what I said then.May we have a renaming contest in your honor? I think "Irritable Bowel" doesn't mean much even to doctors, any more. We could keep "Syndrome," don't you think? How about "Sensitive Tummy Syndrome" or STS, or "Gut Annoyance Syndrome?" I'm very glad you wrote in. All the best, Tummyblogger Dear Rachel,

I can't tell you how many times I've been asked what IBS stands for- much to my emberassment having to explain. I HATE using the word bowel. It makes the condition sound a lot more gross then it is. I particularly suffer from IBS- C, and have been dealing with it for over 13 years now. :( I totally agree!!!
