Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Back to Pike's Peak!

Toady!!! What a coincidence!!! I had a bad attack this morning, came to work for an hour and had to go home for a couple hours. I came back to work and on my drive back (15 minute drive) I was thinking "I need to go back to Pike's Peak" and I was going to post it as soon as I had a chance. I'm so sorry you are having a rough time. It really s^@ks when there are people who make life miserable at work. Here's wishing you the best in finding a new job.

Here's my vent:
I'M SO TIRED OF NOT BEING "NORMAL". I WANT TO BE ABLE TO PLAN A CAMPING TRIP WITHOUT WORRYING 2 WEEKS IN ADVANCE ABOUT POSSIBLY BEING "SICK". (hubby and I are planning on going to the mountains and setting up his hunting camp in two weeks before he goes hunting...I won't be able to take a week off to go hunting with him, but I can go for a weekend when he sets up camp.) I'M TIRED OF CONSTANTLY MAKING SURE I KNOW WHERE THE BATHROOM IS WHERE EVER I AM! I'M TIRED OF ALWAYS HAVING TO THINK ABOUT WHAT I EAT TO AVOID THE CONSIQUENCES LATER! I'M TIRED OF HAVING TO EXPLAIN TO PEOPLE WHY I DON'T FEEL GOOD. OTHER PEOPLE JUST HAVE A DAY OR TWO WHERE THEY DON'T FEEL GOOD AND DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT. WHEN I DON'T FEEL GOOD I ALWAYS HEAR "OH...IS IT YOUR STOMACH AGAIN. DO YOU THINK YOU ATE SOMETHING YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE? DO YOU THINK YOU'LL FEEL BETTER TOMORROW?" I'M SICK OF THE STRESS AND ANXIETY THIS "SYNDROME" CAUSES. I'M TIRED OF "PAYING THE PRICE" IF I EAT SOMETHING I SHOULDN'T! I'M SICK OF IBS!!!!!!!!!

thanks for listening...{{{hugs}}}
