Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I’m happy to share my progress. After reading about tortuous colon, I think my condition came from straining. I’ve had IBS for years, it’s common with fibromyalgia. I’ve been pretty regular and a cup of coffee usually did it for me every morning. I’ve read diet has something to do with it also but there are many contributing factors. For me, I’m going to learn what I can do to live with this condition and use what works for me. Drinking a lot of water has been a big help! It’s different for everyone. Try not to overwhelm yourself and do what you can to get things moving. Obviously we need this part of our bodies to function on a regular basis, but it might take a little time to find what works for you. Right now, senna softeners are helping until I apply better methods! Try not to let stress make things worse! I know it’s difficult sometimes when we don’t get the answers we feel we should be getting, but you will find what helps now that you know what’s going on.

Sorry, I meant to say, "stress management always a good idea..."
