A member asked:
Can spending most of my time in bed prolong ibs? i've had bowel discomfort for 3 months. i was also successfully treated from a parasite 3 months ago

Quality of life: You were treated for a parasite infection three months ago. You gave either inflammatory bowel or irritable bowel. You stay in bed. You should consider your quality of life. See a doctor as to the cause of prolonged bed rest. It might require more testing but your quality of life may improve after.
