If you have had these tests and I am sure you've had others too, and nothing found then please be rest assured there is Nothing Sinister there.... you need to deal with the problem you have, stop worrying and just deal with what you have,

Does your diary indicate anything beyond "what" you ate?...Ours (not always) when (what time of the day...what we ate, and how much, plus how we felt. We've been able to with some degree of accuracy pin point what seems to affect us... Stress does matter.

Only my IBS diagnosis brought me relief of panic and pain. I had lived for this moment 24/7 every day.

So IBS are you saying can be caused by stress alone or are there other factors that can cause IBS, I have IBS, and also I have a fissure when I first went for consultation at the hospital, the specialist told me that Codine can cause a fissure, I am not one of those peeps to try and clain from who ever perscribed the codine for what the tablets were for I do not know but why are they on the market if they can cause problems and advice would be great

IBS is ''Not'' caused by stress alone, there are numerous factors depending on the individual, most IBS sufferers have at least 2 or 3 similar issues, Stress does play a huge part in suffering, and if that is treated many IBS sufferers will be helped dramatically, Codeine is noted for causing ''Constipation'' so a small dosage is best advised, but codeine with paracetamol works well 15/30mg is prescription only but they are a good ''duo'' Codeine can become very addictive and very rarely is it ever prescribed on it's own.

Many thanks for your imput,I just wondered if Stress would help and thats a good help from you thank you, its funny really as peeps can have stress without even knowing about it, and can be an inward stress and I suppose without knowing about it unless we try to combat it and let it get hold then maybe it has a knock on effect, if I am worried about something and although I am good at coping, I am not saying that I dont worry but tend to put it out of my mind then go back to the problem later as i am going through the end of my divorce and I want a quick settlemnet so I can move on with my life, maybe this helps with IBS

Hey, ''Never worry for the sake of worry'' Remember this, ''Most things don't matter much, and somethings don't matter at all''. If you try to live your life and remember what will be will be, good, bad, or indifferent. You will lead a fruitful and happy life and be surprised how you can achieve anything... Stress Kills, so try to avoid it....

Thank you for your imput and yes ,I agree with you my mum used to worry if her hubby was out late she would sit up in bed until he was home and I vowed that I would not worry like her, I keep very busy as I have my own business but the times that I find my mind wandering is in the early hours of the morning before its time to get up, once I am up out of the bed i am fine then again sometimes late at night as somethings you cannot help sometimes as mentioned in previous on forum, i am just out of a bad marriage and until x has done as she has been asked to do by the courts I cannot move on with my life because she has to do as courts ordered so this is a big worry, not a worry that its on my mind but a worry that I cannot have forclosure she has moved on but I cannot I dont have any hangups about her just need her to do the right thing end of rant lol
