My life with IBS is not tragic but is still not fun

I did not get IBS until late in life so on one hand I am thankful for not having this for most of my life while on the other hand I am perplexed why we do not have a cure or at least reasonable drugs to treat this yet. Many days are planned around how much torture my IBS wants to inflict on me and in many cases I have to either bow out or take a much reduced participation role. Let’s all say a small prayer that 2018 brings us a better life.
