The severity of IBD symptoms can vary widely from person to person, and not everyone experiences every symptom. For some, the pain may be the most problematic, while for others, the diarrhea can truly make them miserable. Which IBD symptom has impacted your life the most? Share Your Experience
Chohn's
- Just had my procedure done and the doctor thinks I have Crohn's disease. I will get my result next week. Reading the symptons I would say I have had this for years. Has been at its worst since April this year.

Unpredictable Diarrhea
- Many health professionals have recommended that I learn relaxation exercises. BUT, when I try to relax, I end up losing control of my bowels. So frustrating!

Me: Rumbly Tumbly; Sis: Diarrhea
- My IBS symptoms tend to be pretty mild, so the worst of it for me is when I get an upset-stomach feeling that lasts for hours. My tummy area emits interesting sounds, to broadcast to the world that all is not right with my gastrointestinal situation. It's not horrible, but it is uncomfortable in more ways than one. My sister, on the other hand, gets really bad diarrhea and can be stuck on the potty (off and on, but mostly on) for literally hours! This takes a lot of time out of her life, and is uncomfortable to boot! At least she gets a lot of reading done...
