Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Why am I not getting better?

Hi Vicam,

I feel like I am readng my life's story. I can completely and totally sympathize with you. I have been doing everything right with no cheating - zero - nada and I STILL feel like crap every single day of my life!! Ihave had IBS for 6 months now and have MAYBE had 5 symptom free days in all that time. I am always in pain and I have diarrhea at LEAST once a day every day. My doc now has me on Bentyl 10 mg which seems to be doing nothing for me. I feel like I am at my wits end as well. I feel like there is nothing that is going to help me and I am just going to be like this for the rest of my life. I know I am not offering you really anything but to say that there are still people out there who are going through what you are going through and that can be a comfort in and of itself. You are NOT alone! If you wouldl ike to e-mail me to talk or vent please feel free to do so.

If I am to offer any advice I would say to try the hypno tapes. That is going to be my next line of defense. I have heard nothing but very good things about them and it definitely can't HURT the situation.

I'll be thinking about you and if I find something that is working for me I will let you know.
