FUNNY!! I really thought you were a guy!! HAhahaha! I guess I should never have assumed but for some wacky reason I thought your username---okay never mind with the weird explaination...great to know you are a women and such a wonderful, beautiful person. You have been so helpful to me through all this madness. It is so great to know someone like you who no matter what difficulties you may endure personally you manage to give support and encouragement to other people. Thank you again for all of your support. I know I get all mushy but I can't help it sometimes.

I cannot begin to tell you how your advice has helped me. IBS has been such a bitch and getting hold of this madness is so trying.

I am starting the antibiotics I told you about tomorrow and will fill you in on how the treatment is working. I was reading up on some of the old posts on the subject of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and some people on this site have been treated for that sucessfully but have IBS for sure. My GI says that the two problems may go hand in hand but I may very well have SIBO and not IBS, which is why he sent me for the hydrogen methane test to begin with. I won't get my hopes too high but I am sure I will see some improvement.

Anyway, I am always so happy to hear from you. Happy birthday to you again and do let me know how your Boston trip went. You have a great weekend too. By the way, yoga is sounding awesome. I need to get on that soon but I can only do so much right now and I need to realize that.

Hugs,

p.s. sorry about the gender assumption--I feel so stupid to put it lightly and I still don't know why I thought you were a guy! I mean why the heck would a guy ask me about my relationship and be so enthusiastic about Hawaii???? Should have known....
