I can't get out of bed.
Has anyone else got IBS, are you supposed to be THIS exhausted after a spell of it?
I'm hoping it's a mis-diagnosis and that I have helicobacter pylori instead. It sounds like helicopter.

I have IBS
but not particularly badly. When it happens, I feel run down and a bit manky, but no more than that. H.pylori gives you stomach ulcers, I could be wrong but it shouldn't make you bedriddenly exhausted.

But now that I'm a qualified netdetective
I look into it, and it's often hereditery, and my mother always had ulcers, she's got 'IBS' she got osteoporosis very young (like a lot of people with h pylori who crave calcium).
People with rosacea (like me and my mum) often have it. The things used to treat rosacea are almost identical to the things used to treat h pylori, but in different ways.

I think I'm onto it. Last night was dreadful. And I'm the WORST hypochondriac in the world.
