We had a whole thread on constipation a few months back. it turned out most of us have had constipation and we have all related it to our MS. It turns out the questionairre at my MS MD includes it as a sx now.

The territory I find myself in is new for the MDs to admit is "may" be part of the whole MS cycle. The MD himself wonders how many MS folks are not reporting it, so it isnt included, or how many patients are being dismissed.

Is your tummy worse around a flare? I would tell your MS MD if so. it just may be a rare presentation of early MS when you were 19.

If I eat certain things it creates havoc within my tummy. High fructose corn syrup is one thing that really gets me. If I eliminate that one thing it makes a world of difference. Problem is, HFCS is in so many things! It's really difficult sometimes to find things that don't contain it. I've pretty much resorted to eating whole foods....nothing processed. It does limit my choices but my overall health is better because of it. Plus, I've lost weight!

No abnormal tummy troubles here. TG
