Thanks for being so open about your life. Finally, I hope I've found someone that may help me too...IBS since 12, (now a "young":-) 58)... reprieve for about 10 years, then IBS + generalized anxiety +PTSD...I've always worked, even through all this, but the last few years have been really bad. Like everyone else it's diarrhea and cramps all one day, then constipation the next day - I think the "c" is the worst... Evidently I have hemorrhoids and even though I know that's most probably what causes it, when I have blood with a BM, it scares me. I had an endoscopy & colonoscopy about 4 yrs ago: IBS, diverticulosis, gastritis, GERD, esophogitis...polyps that dissolved upon touch, so I'm blessed. BUT... all this to say, that when you mentioned "blood", I didn't feel so alone in this world - thank you... Does this happen often with you? I don't know what to eat anymore - when I follow Heather's diet, it's wonderful for the "D", but then it sometimes causes the "C" and then here comes the "H" and blood!:-) My dr. mentioned taking miralax, but don't want to take anything else unless I absolutely have to. Any advice would be most welcomed... And, you are right - God and will make a way! (And, I've met Don Moen:-) - many years ago... Looking forward to hearing from anyone who can tell me this is not abnormal. Thanks!
