Stress AND food: Keep a log on your food intake and avoid foods that aggravate. Also different stressors affect people differently. Keep offending stressors to a minimum.

Home treatment: may be the best way to manage the symptoms. Pay attention to diet, fiber supplements, exercise, and stress management should help keep your symptoms under control. They may even keep your symptoms in remission. Take care.
