Not that this should be surprising to any of you, but I really just have to say I HATE IBS. I've gone to the bathroom 10 times in the last 2 hours (&#%$%^@ D). I'm IBS A, but usually lean toward C, so why did my IBS have to pick the day when I have an organic chemistry exam at 8pm to start messing around. I know some of it is definately from stress, but come on! I'm having one of those days where I wish I could just curl up in a hole and die.
Thanks for letting me complain. I don't know what I'd do without you guys since my friends sure don't want to hear about this.

Think positive and remember we are here for you to vent at!

How about cutting out a big paper circle and writing the word IBS on it and taping it up on the wall of your shower and throwing things at it while you are having diarrhea!!!
Man it does suck. It's one of those diseases that when you have it you look perfectly healthy so it's so hard for others to understand.
Stock up on the white bread, make sure you take your soluble fiber, and hang in there.

Complain as much as you want. We all have bad days where nothing seems to go right. 
Here's hoping tomorrow, or this weekend is WAY better.

Ok, I got a 28 on the exam. I don't know what the class average is yet, but OUCH! I'm probably going to have to drop the course and take it again either next semester or over the summer. I don't want to, but I need to do well in this class inorder to get into vet school. I'm really not surprised with my grade considering that I've been so sick, I keep blacking out since I'm not able to keep any nutrients in my body (i either puke up what ever I eat, or it goes right through me before I get a chance to digest anything of value), but I'm still dissapointed.
How do you guys manage to get through school with IBS. I'm struggling to make it to class most days of the week. I don't want to have to change my career goals because of this damn condition, but I don't know how I'm going to get through two and a half more years of college and four years of vet school living like this. I've been on Heather's diet since the begining of August, and was doing ok until I went back to school. Now each week is worse than the one before. I'm so frustrated and angry and my tummy hurts so @#%@$&^ bad and my doctors are completely useless.

Take a deep breath, Meg. First, get stable again, eat the "what to eat when you can't eat anything" stuff, make sure you get plenty of sleep (which is my big thing), and maybe get a yoga book and start doing some yoga to help destress. Take it a day at a time. I know how you feel, I'm finally stable-ish, but I have to be so careful or I'll end up sick and not able to go to class/work (I'm on co-op right now, but it's my last term of no classes until I graduate).
*HUGS* Hang in there!
