Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: How long does it last?

Hi Ruchie!

The first, about 10 days or so, my body hurt so bad. My ENTIRE BODY! It was beyond fatigue or anything I had ever felt before. She said that was not normal and that I wasn't drinking enough water or following the diet close enough.

At the very start I just dropped all the food I couldn't eat and ate barely anything except chicken and rice which is fine, but I don't think I was eating enough or drinking enough water.

I also used to get terrible stomach pains. So bad - I would be doubled over and unable to walk or move. I have since learnt that is a sign of dehydration for me.

As soon as I feel the pain coming on, I force myself to drink a ton of water. It usually nips it in the bud.

Do you drink enough water in a day! I have gotten a water cooler at home. And because we rent it it reminds me to drink my water so I am not wasting my money LOL. Nice little trick I have to play on myself.

What kind of body aches do you have? From fatigue or maybe lack of something?

Please keep me posted - I hope you can see what will make this go away....

Take care,
