Re: Sick from work       11/29/08 04:34 PM Edit Reply Quote Ulrika Reged: 08/20/06 Posts: 581 Loc: Uppsala, Sweden I understand what you mean, but I'd say don't think twice about it. I think this is all due to IBS being such a common condition and that most people have such a mild form of it. It is easy to be judged by other people. They might say "oh, it's just a little tummy upset - get over it" or something like that. Most people with mild IBS and people who don't have IBS probably don't understand what it's about. But this is a medical condition. A legitimate medical condition. So why feel bad if you need to stay home from work? A person suffering from migraines doesn't feel bad for staying home I think, and is probably not judged by people for it either. Neither would someone with an inflammatory bowel disease be. So why should you? /Ulrika Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
