This is me! I have bowel urgency and didn’t know what it was or why it happens and was too embarrassed to mention it to anyone. I was diagnosed with mild diverticulosis ten or more years ago and have IBS for as long as I can remember. My whole digestive system seems to be in disarray as I was diagnosed a year ago with GORD and a hiatus hernia too.
I just put it down to always having trouble with my bowels for as long as I can remember, and my being a bit sensitive to certain foods like wheat, sugar and yeasty things and overly processed foods.
I take a daily probiotic, eat plenty of live yogurt and drink kefir I’m careful what I eat and how much I eat too. I read about inflammatory and anti inflammatory foods and try to avoid foods that can add to inflammation in my system.
Our Welfare State. Is it broken?
