Any struggling seniors with IBS?

I'm wondering if there are any seniors here financially struggling. I refuse to feel sorry for myself, though some days I have to wonder how I can pay the essential expenses and still eat well. I live alone and am my own sole support. I worked hard all of my life and paid my taxes honestly. What I had saved in investments went down the drain twice based on stock market crashes. Now I find myself with Social Security only, and a very small pension. The pension goes for supplemental medical insurance and out-of-pocket medical costs.

My friends and acquaintances just do not understand, as they are not dealing with IBS and have plenty of money to sustain them every month.

Is there anyone else out there (here) who can ID with this?
