Loc: Lake Linden, Mich in the U.P. IBS-C
Hi Betty, You are certainly not alone! Many of us have been on the floor in severe pain. A month ago I was on the bath- room floor with bad IBS cramping pain having just had a stroke. My left side was paralyzed, and I of course just felt like I wanted to die. Then I thought to myself, I am NOT going to give in to this damned cursed IBS, and with my right arm pulled myself to the door, got it open, and got help in time. The key here is Will, you have to have the will to NEVER give up fighting this disease. There are still lots of possibilities you can try, the pyschological ones like hypno and meditation could help you immensely. You never know till you try. Don't be afraid of trying new things. At the hospital, I ate lots of stuff(especially desserts) with dairy in them, and had no bad ill effects. Additionally, I managed to gain 13 lbs.(I've been under- weight too).Also, Sand's and Linz's posts give very good advice too. Furthermore, don't be afraid to ask any quest- ion. We're all here to help each other! The road to stable- ization is not an easy one, but keep your will up and you'll make it. Have faith, hang in there! -Bob
