<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Nashville, TN local news 1/10 Channel 5 ran a small report on Irritable Bowel Syndrome on 6:00 segment. Reporter was Katherine Walters. While I missed some of it, gist seemed to be that a Scandanavian study - Swedish I think - had reported something like 80% success rate in relieving IBS sufferers' symptoms (study size around 15 or 20 as I recall) using hypnosis. They also suggested that 10% - 15% of adults suffer from IBS. I did not catch the local medical professionals interviewed. I've emailed the station suggesting a Celiac followup. I've got nothing against hypnosis, but the segment got me to wishing they would tackle Celiac as a very real, provable, albeit "mysterious" when undiagnosed or improperly diagnosed, condition. To the Middle Tennessee support group (which I've never attended) perhaps you all want to call Channel 5 at (615) 248-5250 or visit their Web site and use the "send a message" feature there to let them know we're out here and we need proper attention from the medical community and media.
