So I just called that Johns Hopkins location I mentioned above and the earliest they can take me is early April . Why does it always take so long . I'm losing all my hope; diets don't seem to work, my old doctor is of no help either. Do you guys ever feel like nobody cares that you hurt (not meaning family, I have a lot of support from them).
Also, I'm thinking, should I go back to the original GI and ask for that antibiotic treatment (I ended up not doing it originally)? The prescription I got was for Flagyl but I was reading on the internet that Rifaximin (Xifaxan) is more effective. But I feel like if I suggest that one he'll be like "oh, who are you to know which antibiotic to use"? You know, doctors often hate it when you suggest something to them. I'm so lost with this whole IBS thing...
