In 1988, Tim Phelan was an ambitious new college grad with a degree in French and economics. He dreamed of becoming a successful international businessman–but his life took quite a different turn, thanks to his overactive bowels. Through more than a decade of battling what he would eventually find out was irritable bowel syndrome, he lost a job and several relationships, unwilling to discuss his symptoms with anyone and obsessed with never being far from a bathroom. Now 39, he is able to speak frankly about his travails with IBS–and recently did with U.S. News–and has shared lessons learned in a new book, Romance, Riches, and Restrooms: A Cautionary Tale of Ambitious Dreams and Irritable Bowels (iUniverse, $19.95).
