I have had irrefular stools since I can remember (constipation, diarr, narrow, both, etc..). Have had a bloating, irritable feeling in my stomach/abdomin since all this has come about. My diet is less than stellar and I have hx of alcohol use (recently quit entirely). Since bro was dx, I have a colonoscopy scheduled and am terrified of results. Every web site I go to has the above as risk factors and now with the heredity peice, I am scared to death. Anything I can do to ease the worry?
