Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Notadoctor

Actually since I'm pretty sure this is Volatile (right?) I was referring to our discussion the other night when you asked the *same question* about bloating and sweating and a number of people gave you their experiences and opinions.

I don't know what pill you're taking but I can tell you 100% it's not a cure for IBS. I don't even have to explain why as it should be obvious.

Comments like this:

is what chinagrl is referring to when she says people are getting *very* irritated with your tone. First, yes we KNOW. Please stop trying to insist that we couldn't possibly understand what you're going through - we are all going throught the same thing, and we deal with it. One of the ways we deal with it is coming to the boards to discuss it...

Second, when we discuss, we don't demand that other posters give us all the answers or give us a cure. We udnerstand that you "can't function" and that you're upset with the way you LOOK - but we (or anyone) can't deliver you relief on a silver platter and make everything ok. I'm truly sorry we can't do that but we can't. The only person who can do that is YOU. YOU have to be willing to make changes in your diet (i.e. following the diet on this website 100%) and your lifestyle (i.e. not stressing and getting upset and anxious about all this, as Amanda said - this doesn't mean fogetting about your IBS completely, you have to STICK TO the diet or your IBS will make itself very difficult to ignore).

Listen, everyone understands that you are upset and frustrated and not feeling well. And you know what? We can totally relate because believe it or not! WE'VE ALL BEEN THERE. But you really have to stop being so harsh and demanding in your posts and you really need to stop flooding the boards with posts, as Heather expressed in her post directed to you - especially posts that ask questions that either you have already asked and had answered (even if they weren't the answers you wanted) or that are already well covered on the website.

We really do want to help you - but we can't do that very well if you just go and get yourself banned again, now can we?
