Doctor's piss me right off! I have suffered with IBS forever and no doctor has ever helped me. They say it's all in your head and eat fibre, yea right. My friend's husband told me the other day it's all in your head (he had been given a pamphlet on IBS and that's what it said. I managed to control my temper. BUT since then he has been sick in bed and the best I could do was to suggest that I send him a pamphlet saying it's all in HIS head. now has nasty is that! Not my normal self, but it shows how fed up I am with the medical profession. About three weeks ago I paid big bucks and drove to Toronto to see a naturopath. They put me on their miracle diet, fruits, vegys, fibre. This was supposed to help me lose weight. O.k. but I told her I have IBS. Oh we help people with IBS all the time, she said! My butt, their diet put me into a complete tailspin. I am just recovering now with Heather's book. You would think a naturopath would know a thing or two about IBS! Guess not, just wanted my money.

I can't remember what I was replying to now, oh well, take care everybody. I have to report that I have been doing this now for a week and a half and I feel soooooooooo much better! Thanks everyone.
