The cold doesn't help and could set the IBS off.Usually a stomach virus or food poisoning bacteria would cause severe diarrhea usually every 20-60 minutes for at least several hours and can last up to a week.They don't tend to cause just a bit more pain than usual.

Every other illness is a physical stress on the body.Your body reacts to stress, any stress, physical, emotional, mental, etc.Stress always makes every disease worse. It never makes anything better. I mean when have they ever said that what will cure you is to stay up too late, get up too early, and do too much physical exercise while not eating or drinking enough. It is always get more fluids and plenty of rest.

yh...just gettin fed up now..im doing everything my gp said too..no point going back, i found milk gives me griping pains..i guess it could take time until my body settles down..on nasty soya milk..but i still seem to get a few pains after i eat things..maybe its because my insides are still inflamed..who knows. i just wish it didnt happen..i miss my old self..ive lost all my confidence...my loud n leary attitude..

i hope staying off the milk is the start to my recovery..
