that thread "famous non-IBSer's lines" made me realize something, and i'm just curious as to what the rest of you have experienced in this area...my one main "button pusher" is my mom. i mean by this that she is the main person who, after knowing alllll about my ibs, still manages to trigger attacks, and basically make me miserable on a fairly regular basis. she is a nice lady, really, please don't get me wrong, but somehow she just manages to say one of those "famous non-IBSer's lines" and then not seem to have a clue what she said and why on earth it would have upset me. it has even become a sort of "chicken and the egg" cunundrum...does my mom trigger the attacks - or telepathically sense when one is coming, and so decides it is the perfect time to push those buttons. honestly noone else does this, occasionally someone who has no idea i have IBS will make a comment that i obvious must excuse, because they have no idea i have IBS. i don't get it, and it has been a particularly rough past couple of days with her...just wondered if anybody else has one main button pusher that puts their IBS into overdrive? ~mrs. mason (still trying to learn how to make a negative into a positive)
