jeepers. you've been putting up with this a while now. i can see where you'd feel desperate. i certainly have had my times where i would have sold my soul to make the pain stop. it can and DOES get better. you're in a great place to find help.

now if you haven't already done so, you need some fennel tea. really. i didn't like the taste too much when i first got it, but i got used to it. it really really helps with the gas. that's what's causing a lot of that pain, i bet. think of your colon as a balloon that's pretty dang full. if you squeeze that balloon, it just moves around, but the tension doesn't release. that's what's happening inside. once you find a way to get some of that gas out, the pain resolves a little bit. the fennel (and i'm not sure HOW) seems to get rid of some of that gas. it's worth a try, right?

good luck and keep posting.
