I found this site by accident and since that time, and since following your books and the diet outlined I consider myself stable. I can function in my life, at home, at work, and in the church because I have followed and continue to follow the guidelines that you have set down in terms that I can understand and put to use. I am once again living my life without ibs being the dominate factor.
If I wanted to flood myself with scientific details I certainly could find them else where on the internet. Here I find the thoughts and ideas of those who have ibs, and cope with it and still live their life. I wouldn't care for a site that argued the fine points of ibs, and the science that goes with it. Here I have found help, hope, and have been inspired by the many who post here.
A new board for questions and comments on the science of ibs? I don't need it. I need help with this diet that works, with recipes, with the inspiration that I get from the many who post how they have overcome their problems, and the posts that help us all understand that we are not alone. That there are others who understand what is happening to us - to me.
A science board. No thank you, but thank you for thinking about it. I can only foresee a board where there are fiery discussions and arguments on a site where as it now stands supports your approach to dealing with ibs. This is a positive place to come and talk about the needs and problems associated with ibs.
Now again, thank you Heather for the time and effort that you have put into helping all of us cope and deal with ibs. I say all of us, but I really mean me …thank you for helping me live with ibs.
I am truly in your debt. I pray that our Father in Heaven will always bless you. JJ
