Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi ya'll,

Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, I've been looking in a lot to make sure everyone is alright and have started Reporting In on the fitness board again so I am still around, just not quite as vocal, hee hee.

I am just feeling really blah and crappy right now, so thought I'd come seeking some hugs and empathy. My Aunt Flo came today and I've just had a really miserable day. Luckily, it was my day off but I am kinda bummed that it wasn't any fun since I go back to work night shift again tomorrow.
Anyway, I woke up with major cramps and pain in my face (I think I may have a little sinus infection or something) and a tooth ache (going to the dentist on Wednesday). I stayed in bed until 11:30 'cause I just felt so exhausted I couldn't drag my aching body out of bed!

Then I got up, and ate, and made the mistake of eating raw fruit and my throat TOTALLY reacted and has now been bothering me for TEN HOURS!

I took Benadryl, I took zantac.. I cannot figure out what is going on with my throat, it is almost EVERY time I eat now and it is driving me absolutely mental!

Anyway, 'cause I am so hormonal I am all emotional and it is just really upsetting me that _something_ always hurts.

Then there is this big wedding fair on this weekend in Vancouver, so there was a big section on Weddings in the newspaper. My mom came and said, "Do you want to read this Wedding stuff?" ('cause she seems to be convinced I am always 5 minutes away from getting married) and I snapped at her, "No!" and then she left, and it just made me so sad. It's not like I am desperate to get married or anything, but like 4 girls I work with got engaged over Christmas and everyone is so bubbly and happy and I am so nowhere near there and it bums me out when my stupid little red friend starts putting funny ideas in my head.

Anyway, just feel like I need some gal pal picking up. I'm sure I'll feel better tomorrow. I worked out for an hour and a half 'cause I thought that would help, but it didn't so maybe I just need some more sleep.

Thanks as always for listening ya'll.

**hugs**
Steph
