Eating is a fundamental part of life. So, when things aren’t going well with our digestive system, it affects not only our health but also our routines, social lives and very identity.  

And these days, more people seem to be struggling with chronic gastrointestinal problems, including irritable bowel syndrome and autoimmune diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. 

Coming up at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, MPR News guest host Kyra Miles talks about diagnosing and living with gut problems.  

If you or someone in your life has been diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease or irritable bowel syndrome, what do you want people to know about it?  What has improved your symptoms or made your condition easier to live with? Or, what questions do you have for our guests?

Call us during the 9 a.m. hour at 651-227-6000 or 800-242-2828.
