Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

first off.... thank you to all who have responded to my question. and thank you for your understanding and the advise about being open. i wasnt quite sure how to ask that question and now i am glad that i did. it is very hard to understand this thing that has taken over my body. my problem is that i dont go for 2 or 3 weeks at a time and when i do it's like grab a towel bite down hard and hold on. i cry myself to sleep, i am miserable all the time and my husband doesnt understand the kind of pain i am in. i have tried to explain it to him and sometimes he listens and sometimes he doesn't. he bugs me all the time about sex and that is the farthest thing from my mind. i would like to and i have just to please him even though it was very painful and uncomfortable for me. i just cant do it anymore. i have been to the doc and he has me on a ton of medications but none of them seem to be working. i have an appointment to see the GI doc in Jan and to me it seems like lightyears away. I hate the pain, I hate the cramps, I hate the way my body looks, and sometimes I just dont want to get out of bed in the morning. I have a lot of research to do about the meals and the things that I have been reading on this site. Maybe soon I will find something that will give me some relief. Again, thanks to all of you who replied to my post. :smirk:
