My daughter is 14, she was born with consipation problems that seemed to go away as she got into school, then in six grade she became very sick, out of school alot, would not eat, did not participate in any activities. Her primary doctor said that she was depressed, emotional and nervous, she droped almost 20 olds. Anyway, she passed out in a local store and when she was taken to the emergency they look xrays and found out that she was "back up to her ears" and that her body was possioning her. Two years later, many specialist and awful test were still no furture, however I am happy to say that she is healthier now, they have her med's that allow her body to keep up with itself, however lately she has become harder to regulate again, seeming to be worse around her menstral cycle. Missing out on life again, no sleep over's, school, holiday events. My question is has IBS ever been seen to have any causelation with period issues? I look back and think that she had started her period about 4-6 months before she started getting really sick. Also she is currently on the pill because her periods are so bad, heavy and make her feel sick. Any feed back would be helpful.
Thanks,
