Im going through another tough cycle i call it. My life sucks. Its very hard for me to handle the pain mentally. I have these bouts regularily. Sometimes i feel just fine but it never lasts. I cant work a job and feel embarrassed that im useless. Im sure when people see me feeling ok at times its impossible to understand the situation. I have tried for many years to figure out my problem. Benn to 2 gastro drs. and was told nothing can be done for me, just take stool softeners. What a joke that is. I could be so much more for myself and others if i could fix my problem. I would like to converse with someone that has severe pain as a symtom. I have tried many things to no avail. Its weighing heavily on me mentally and phisically to cope daily. Thanks for listening.
