Hmm, 'thepurplelollie', what a cute name! Makes me very curious about what it means!

I have started the 'what to eat..' but cheated the other day and am now pretty sure that movie popcorn is now off my list!

Work have been extremely understanding with my family troubles (I had 2 years off when my son was first diagnosed) and I have quite a bit of leave up my sleeve but it doesn't stop the work piling up when I get back, then I have to work twice as hard and long to catch up. Then my stress levels rise......I am seeing a pattern here, LOL, I gotta learn to chill out!

Oh and sometimes having kids makes it easier when you are ill. My girls are 13 and 11 and when I am in pain they help out. Right now my eldest is making me some muffins.

Thankyou for letting me know that it is OK to vent. I was feeling a little guilty for off loading last night, I am just frustrated some times.

Kind regards,

Satine

There are a few Aussies on here - Doubletrouble is one that springs to mind, she's lovely. And I'm a Kiwi, so that's almost as good, right?

I don't know what the failsafe diet is, but I'd recommend the "what to eat when you can't eat anything" diet for a few days to cool your system off.. and then try reintroducing things so you know what sets you off. There's lots of dairy and meat substitutes available in Australia, from what I gather.. we're a bit limited in NZ!

I'm constantly having days off work too. It's really important that you explain to your boss exactly what's going on so they know what to expect (and hopefully go easy on you).
I hope things calm down for you a bit, it can't be easy having kids AND ibs... and managing one with autism to boot. On here we're always willing to listen though, and you never have to feel guilty about unloading. Welcome!
