First, glad to hear that everything is ok with your wife. Yes stress for me is a disaster in terms of my IBS. When I am under really stressful situation even a glass of water are bad for me.

And it goes directly related to the amount of pain that I have: last week I was feeling so bad (low back pain & hands), and my IBS goes from Constipation to the other way in just 1 day, totally uncontrolled. This week I am feeling much more better and my IBS symptoms are improving. The reason: last week I was under a stressful situation due to my job situation, I am in STD, providing support to the other financial analyst, receiving pressure from the insurance co, so that don't help to the condition; and this week no calls, so I could stay on my treatment.

Well, I hope you start to improve. Zaida
