Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi guys,

Thanks for all your posts, it makes me feel better to know that there are other people who have been through similar stuff. It is so frustrating to me, I feel like something is always going wrong with my body - if it's not one thing, it's something else.

Whatever, I am alright, I just feel frustrated right now.

Anywho, so I went to get some blood tests today which I wish I could have done on a different day 'cause I felt so dizzy. I had to walk there by myself, get the test, and walk home. Walking there was hard, but walking back home was really crappy.
When I showed up, she also told me that my doctor had sent in an order for a bunch of stool samples too, ICK! I've done this stuff so many times, but I still hate it. She told me to take a sample, and keep it in the fridge! How disgusting!

Anyway, I should get results in the next 3 days from the blood tests. They might as well have just filled up a milk container for the amount of blood they took, yeeesh!!

So I've hardly been off the couch since I got home, I sat down with my Dad and watched Star Trek and the end of some Clint Eastwood movie for the afternoon and slept a lot. The way I feel right now, I could definitely not work. I was supposed to go to a job interview today, but found out that you have to pay $500 for training and stuff so decided not to go, but even if it was a good job I don't think I could have done it.

I am going to the walk-in clinic in about half an hour with Adrian to get a refill on my bcp and I think I will ask the doc about all this head rushy feeling. Maybe he can check my ears and stuff.

Wednesday is my barium xray thing, I'll keep ya'll updated!
