Q: Two months ago I began having tummy troubles (bloating, swollen abdomen, constipation). Soon after, my husband began experiencing the same. Doctor thinks it's not related...we don't think so. Help!

Neither of us have ever had these symptoms for no reason and for this long...can IBS come on suddenly like this? We're miserable, afraid to eat. Using Miralax & Phillips Colon Health have helped a bit. Could we have a bug? Our family doctor doesn't think it is a bug, said we don't live in a 3rd world country. He also thinks it's just coincidence that we both are going through this. We haven't changed a thing...how can we find out if it is a bug? Again, ppplease help!
