Being quite digestively-impaired, I might be able to offer a few insights about digestive problems.
I've identified the following digestive diseases, each one having a character of its own:
1) Excess Acidity or "GERD". Also called "Acid Reflux". Can damage esophogus.
2) Ulcers. Usually confined to stomach.
3) Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Classically thought to be caused by stress but is often the precursor to currently invisible Ulcerative Colitis.
4) Ulcerative Colitis. My particular problem. Part of intestinal tract has visible inflammation, sometimes bleeding. Thought to be an auto-immune disease.
5) Crohn's Disease. Also my problem. Can be restricted to sores in one concentrated area of the intestines or can be completely generalized, from the mouth to the rectum. I have the generalized form. Also suspected to be an auto-immune disease.
Each of these seem to be separate entities and probably require subliminal suggestions specific to each one, with some general overlap such as diet, stress, etc.
Although IBS can be a simply functional malfunction of the smooth muscles (intestines cramp up and peristalsis timing goes way off), it is often diagnosed as IBS but later to be found to develop into full-blown Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's.
