What are the signs of Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
Well, sometimes I get these really painful cramps around my belly area. (rarely) Usually I only get stomach aches when I have to make a bowel movement. I admit, I don’t eat the most healthy foods but I only eat fast food once or twice a week, most times. I am a 13 year old girl by the way. I am worried that I may have IBS.
