irritable bowel syndrome
"So far on Day 4 of Lotronex.  This is so far THE ANSWER... I have had no urges to go the bathroom with intense diarrhea in 4 days.  I have had irritable bowel syndrome for about 20 plus years (I'm 38).  So far this is a MIRACLE.  And I am only taking the 0.5 once a day!  I have not had 4 days like this in literally years.  And it's not placebo because I'm very self aware (I'm a psychologist).  I hope this works for all of you as it is for me.  I am hopeful after being near suicidal!  Also, my doctor has also just started me on desipramine, an antidepressant that also is supposed to help irritable bowel syndrome and it is working too.  I'm SO HAPPY!  Rule out all other conditions and then get on this PRONTO!"
