Hey, if anyone in the world is entitled to feel a little sorry for ourselves once in a while, it's ANY of us who deal with not just one chronic health problem (IBS) but two, or three, or four!!

Amen to that! Kandee, hun, I'm so sorry you're in such low spirits. Yes, having a headache 24/7 will do that to ya. My dad used to ask me if my head hurt and would just glare at him and say, "Why did you ask that? I haven't had a pain-free day in x number of days/months/years". Ok, so now we have the same conversation about my tummy(and my head too, esp. in the summer. I can't take the heat and it's migraine city in my house, since my mom gets migraines from heat too). My poor dad, he just can't win can he?! Everyone he loves is in pain and nothin' he can do about it. However, I digress.
My point is Kandee, that I feel for you and you have more than enough reason to complain. I find that expressing my feelings helps me cope better with chronic illnesses. But, I don't have nearly as much going on as you do. I don't know how YOU do it!

Go have a smoothie, it will distract you AND might help your head out a little. Do you have a headache band? If not, get one ASAP and put it in your freezer. Big hug!
