Hi,

I'm Lisa, 43, from NY. I was wondering if anyone else experiences lower back pain before an IBS episode. I have IBS-D and there are times when the pressure on my lower back is extremely painful. It seems once I go, the pain disappears. Could it be my colon or intestines swelling?

Glad you found us Lisa and that's a very good question! I'll be anxious to see what anyone else has to say. For myself, I've never linked my back issues to IBS, but will try to be more aware in the future. Since I do have specific back issues, I've never really thought about this, but it certainly is possible.
