Hello friends,

I would like to express that I agree Betharoo, all of the problems with IBS are very real and serious to all who suffer with this disease. It is the most frustrating situation that I have ever had to endure. I have been trying to find relief like all of us for the past 7 yrs. If it had not been for this website and Heathers book I would still be suffering big time. I understand more about my illness than I ever thought I wanted, but the does not mean that I am better. I am a small amount better, I have good days and bad days and now the good days outnumber the bad days.

I understand also why you are frustrated and tired of this but Betharoo is right. It takes a long time and alot of work to get to where you are stable. I count my stable time by days, because now I have somedays that are stable. It is your life and if you want to get better you need to understand that changing your diet is a permanent change and will come back if you go back to the way that you were eating before. This is not just a simple food allergy that you can just stop eating one thing and all will be better. I want my old life back too, but I have come to realize that my old life is a closed chapter and I am on a new one.

As for the need for a new or separate board for either IBS-C or IBS-D, I have both the C and D so I get help from all of us together. I like the support from everyone here and feel that we would be losing out on valuable information from others experiencing.

Please anyone who knows more by experience, if I am wrong please feel free to explain to me. I am not an expert, just a sufferer who is learning. I hope and pray that we can all find better health and peace.
