I have had this pretty much my entire life. I'm surprised though, that you have not had more views. In any case, I've had tests, colonoscopies, etc and all I was told was I have a bowel motility disorderl; well, thanks specialists, that is already a known quantity....... How do I manage it without laxatives?!
