Beth, I really feel for you and I'm addicted too.       02/01/05 07:37 PM Edit Reply Quote doubletrouble Reged: 11/14/04 Posts: 1530 Loc: Canberra, Australia I read and read and read about IBS, chrone's, UC all sorts of disorders. The problem with IBS is that so many of the symptoms tie in with other problems. I really wish you lived closer so we could get together and have a cup of (decaf) tea. You already know that I had no relief within a month of Heather's diet and gave up on it (at least for now) on my doctors advice. There's no point going for millions of second opinions. Been there done that and they all say the same thing in the end but some are definately more helpful than others. My doc told me the problem with IBS is that medically nothing is wrong so all they can really do is treat the symptoms not a disorder or disease. So it's mostly trial and error. I'm not much help. I have for the moment found a little bit of relief. Thanks to my doctor who has prescribed one colese a day I am feeling a little better. Not great. I still have a lot of pain which I take buscopan for if the colese isn't enough but at least it's helped the d a little (not much help for you I'm sorry I know you're a c)but maybe you just haven't found what helps you yet. Big hugs. It's hard but for now I try to stay off the net looking for what's wrong with me because the stress it causes makes me worse. I'm sticking with chatting to all you guys in the living room and helping out here where I can but otherwise no surfing. For now it's in my specialists hands. I have to have faith that he will find out what's wrong or at least be able to help (he's sympathetic and nice which is also very helpful). Anyway, sorry to have rambled. Hope at least some of this is of some help or comfort. -------------------- Amy Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
