Living with IBS: Evidence-Based Tools for Transforming Your Bowel Chaos into Bowel Control | Free Virtual Event, Nov. 13
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects millions of Americans daily. It can be associated with anxiety, depression, missed days of work and poor quality of life that is comparable to patients suffering from chronic lung disease or stroke. Virginia Mason Franciscan Health and the Center for Digestive Health is hosting a free, virtual event on Nov. 13. Join us for an in-depth discussion, including an overview of medication and nutrition/psychology options for IBS, a review of evidence-based digital tools for IBS assessment and treatment, and learn how our integrated team at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health can empower you to reclaim your bowel-related quality of life.
