Topics:IBS

I am 27 year old female. And I have always been skinny, Iam 5'2 and weigh between 96-98. I was told by my Doctor that I have IBS. I however do not get constipated alot I get the diarhea part of it. So some things I eat go right threw me! After i had my daughter I was about 102 for about 2 years then went back down to 97lbs. I would like to get back to 102, but seem to have trouble. Some people say since I have always been this way not to worry about the weight. So any ideas or answers you have would be great.
