Doctor, I have 5 siblings. 4 of them have it! I also have a maternal cousin who has it. I changed my diet mostly, but I still have it. Got to be genetic.Been to many doctors. Will try to find an IBS doctor if possible when I move back to the US. Just want to thanks to the ancestor who gave us this issue.

I feel your frustration. We've also seen several members of the same family who have IBS. And as I mentioned in the video, it was finding the underlying cause that was the key for all of them. We're here for you, whether you are in the U.S. or not, and would be glad to help.

I have IBS. So does my dad. We also have acid reflux. And diverticultis which we both started getting complications in our twenties. I can absolutely factor our causes to low fiber intake when I was young. Mine only became somewhat managable, going from moderate to mild, when I started taking high fiber and anti-anxiety medications that regulated seretonin. I should take a food intolorance test though, as the only food I know gives me sadness is dairy. I probably am intolorent to more stuff.

[@IBSTreatmentCenter]

That's certainly possible. And your dad probably has similar triggers, though they aren't always exactly the same.

Some genetic links have been found in the genome of some people. Chrohns, Celiac, Colitis and IBS DO have genetic links…..

[@IBSTreatmentCenter]

Every human health issue has some genetic link, because we are made of genes. But it's never going to be mainly about the genes for IBS. It's more about what we are doing to our genes with our choices. We're not going to be able to "fix" a gene and then solve IBS, because it's not some single fixable error that causes IBS. That has been clearly established, and any genetic link is very weak. And that's my main point. www.nature.com/articles/nrgastro.2015.206
