Full description for Sophie's Story

• It's whispered about and often made light of, but as Sophie Lee will tell you, there is nothing funny about irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)--a chronic medical condition characterized by often intense abdominal pain, bloating, constipation and/or diarrhea.The stigma attached to this disorder prevents many people from seeking help or sharing their problem with family, friends, and coworkers. This is unfortunate, since it is estimated that more than 60 million Americans suffer from this devastating illness. Sadly, patients who do seek medical help often find themselves up against ignorant doctors and even those who believe that IBS is a psychological condition. Sophie's Story: My 20-Year Battle with Irritable Bowel Syndrome chronicles a brave young woman's fight against the IBS "monster" , offering valuable insights on coping with, and even controlling, the symptoms.
