I just got home from my doctor.. hes leaving in a month so today was my last day seeing him he said my ibs is really severe and he gave me a anti depressant, he said it will help my stomach.. he gave me only 10 mg..so it wont react as that but just help my stomach (amitriptyline) anyone ever heard of it?? .. i also told him about the ibs diet and he was asking me the website and i couldnt think of it!! lol.. so i told him to do a search and type in 'heather's ibs diet' so i hope it comes up for him!! he was asking all kinds of questions and said if he likes it, hes gonna recommend it to all of his patients. he also said he'd write me a letter for ssi to try and help me get on it, i didnt even have to ask him, so i was so happy when he said that. i showed him my list of stuff going on with me.. he wants me to have my thyroid checked to see the levels and if thats normal, he mentioned it might be fibromyalgia .. so hopefully if it is, it wont get so bad..so he told me to tell my family doctor to send me to a rheumatologist, not sure if thats the word or not.. but theres my update!
