This is my first time on this or any other support forum. I am admittantly a little nervous. Well, here goes nothing: I have spent most of my life with no insurance. I knew that I had pain, but I didn't know what it was or why. I haven't had the easiest life, so I figured that the pain i felt...

Hello,

I don't know much about this and how it makes you feel or what people can do for treatment so here I am...
Since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia I have had terrible problems with IBS. I have been taking a probiotic treatment and have had really good results with it in regards to IBS.
Has anyone else had success taking probiotics to help with IBS?

Hello Family, Friends, and Anyone Wishing to Know Me!
How do I explain this to you my family and friends? This is very difficult to do as my illness is "unseen." So allow me to begin by thanking you for...
