I can't address windchimes.

It is exactly compassion why I have been helping IBSers for the last ten years with accurate information from reliable resources like the UNC and major IBS research centers and the IFFGD and working extremely hard at it all.

I certainly don't have to do it, but I do it because I know how badly people with IBS suffer, especially since mine has majorally impacted my entire life. I sympathize and empathize with all IBSers to the core.
Although I may not say it enough.

I am working behind the scenes for more IBS research, more accurate IBS information, more legitimizing IBS as a "real disorder" and way more then most will ever know. That is not for a pity party for me either. To me it is and was the right thing for me to do.

I feel somewhat its more important to get to the facts and try to physically help people, as well as show support and compassion. Don't misunderstand that supplying reliable expert IBS information as a lack of compassion to IBSers.

I have spent a good deal of my life and a lot of my own money helping all IBSers that I can and have helped thousands maybe ten of thousands get better or at least understand things a little better.

Gerikat, I certainly can, but this post in general started off with good and bad information and some very bad information and I spoke up about it and tried to show why it was wrong. Some people didn't like that responce to their post. If there are things wrong with my information anyone can point it out to me and they have already pointed out it was long. I get that already. There was a lot that needed to be said and why it needed to be said and took a lot of information and evidence to say it.

It easy to just say things, its a lot harder to back them up with some evidence. That all took a lot of my time. Yet it all seems like I could have been doing something else with my time, after seeing the responces.

Its interesting nobody I saw at least, concured a good doctor patient relationship is very important in IBS. Although I know some here nknow how important it really is in IBS. I just had a super bad doctor problem, which took months to resolve and now I am seeing a new one and it made a world of differnce personally. Like night and day. I will probably get the experinced published, next year.

That doctors are unhelpful, that research is unhelpful, that trying to understand IBS personally is unhelpful, is unhelpful to all IBSers and to the cause.

Shawn, I wasn't the one who mentioned compassion. That would be Windchimes.

I know you are trying to help, and thanks for the post without a link.

Show me where I disrespected you personally? Where is it?

I already stated I won't reply to you anymore.

I have just been answering posts directed to me.

It to bad we don't spend more time on the actual IBS information and less on this.

I know, but I can't address windchimes.

Gerikat, so you know a lot of times I post the link or the info, because then I don't personally corrupt the information trying to explain it or by getting it wrong with wording or my own personal bias.

Oh Ok, gotcha. Yes, I understand Shawn. No hard feelings coming from me. I was getting a bit aggravated earlier, but in the scheme of things...not a big deal. I guess some of us are more research oriented and others (like yours truly), fly by the seat of their pants.

I believe there is room for both here. I guess we all need to know when to pull back a little for a little breathing room.

I asked Heather to lock the thread because I thought it was going on too long and was getting a bit mean. But, things seemed to have calmed down now.

So, all is well.

I am calm Gerikat. I don't attack people personally. Its about information.

I posted again to you in the HT forum so you know. I have extensivly worked with Mike and done more research on HT for IBS then basically anyone on the planet, other then actual studies themselves. I researched it for myself, but for others and just in general, not just for IBS either, but for medical conditions in general and how it works, how it may work and what it can do and be used for in IBS and in medicine in general. Your doing well so you know.

I support the closing of this post, and agree that it is not serving any meaningful purpose at this point in time.

It would be sad to think that future 'newcomers' would possibly think this is the way to handle simple questions and reasonable responses, absent a 'family' debate or argument(s). Most members on this board are actually extremely kind and considerate, sharing where they can, when they can, great info, and asking honest and sincere questions, depending upon where they are in their own stage of recovery (symptom management).

The last thing anyone needs is lectures and/or criticism while they travel their own personal path to managing IBS symptoms.

Windchimes, so you know I use to be a moderator here and am in Heathers books. I posted an applogy to you if I upset you. I will also respect not posting to you personally anymore. This is the last one

However, you have your analysis of what happened on your thread and I have mine. I certainly don't come here just to argue with anyone, because I get any pleasure from it. Not at all.

You don't know me, but I am extremely kind, considerate, sharing, and have been supplying good information for close to ten years to IBSers, run IBS websites, and more on IBS then you will ever know about. I have been majorally involved in the IBS communities for close to ten years. Perhaps things went sideways or we may just disagree. Again I will leave you alone though.

Hope you find your personal answers.
