Thank you both for your kind words! I do need to relax. I'm so worried about when my stomach is going to act up that I worry my stomach until it does act up!!
I have missed alot of work lately, leaving early and staying home, but I am going to miss a week and a half for the wedding, so I don't want to go home. On top of the bowels, I've had pink eye twice in the last couple of months, and I had to stay home on FRIDAYS!! That is the worse, calling in on a Friday morning. That looks very bad, like I'm just trying to get an early weekend. No one else misses as much work as I do. The other day I was stressed because my boss came down on me about some stuff, and I told another lady I was working as hard as possible, but she said (and she was looking from both sides) that if I hadn't missed so much work, they wouldn't be so hard on me. She said that she had only missed one day this year so far, because she had the flu! Poo on her.
They just don't understand what kind of pain we are going through. It kills me when someone says, "oh just go take some gas-x" or something like that. It's just not that easy! It's so frustrating.
I too go home early sometimes. I work at a bank, and we close our doors at four, but we work until five. If I am done with my work after four, and I'm not feeling well, my supervisor usually lets me go like 30 minutes early. Whip-dee-doo. What a break. Like that will help when I have been suffering all day long.
Ok, through venting. Sorry, that was an ear full!

I'm married and it's so wonderful!
