Won't kill you!: Irritable bowel syndrome (ibs) is a long-term evolving condition associated w/ abdominal discomfort, altered stool pattern, & among others accompanying nausea, bloating, gasiness. Often improved by stooling, ibs is defined by changes in perception of gut distension, motility, sensation. Diet & emotional stress play significant roles here. Need to rule out first inflammation, ischemia, & infection.
