 @977b8ddc Sorry to hear that. After I had my ulcer treated (a very long time ago), I had to go gluten-free for several years and had IBS. Tried everything to get rid of it, but eventually it just sort of went away.

 @2184a19c I hope it dies at some point. But bored of clueless doctors. Had so many unpleasant tests. Many twice! Now on third set of probiotics. No joy. And been on very restrictive diet for a long long time

 @977b8ddc I'm really sorry to hear it - it's exhausting on its own. In my case it wasn't disruptively painful, but the pain was always there. I tried everything - pills, hospital, Chinese medicine, acupuncture. Zip. No effect at all. And then gradually it just disappeared. Which I hope will happen for you very soon.

 @2184a19c that would be great. How long did that take for you? I’d love to believe it’ll go.

 @977b8ddc I can't remember exactly, but a few years for sure. I was desperate for something to stop it, but as I say, it just went.

 @2184a19c ah well, that’s doable I guess. I’m a year and a half in. Learning to live with it. Certainly slim now too!

 @977b8ddc Yes, I lost a lot of weight during that period too. Every cloud, I guess.
