Hello -
What are the top 10 things your friends and family need to know about IBS?
I know - you don't want to talk about it at all. It's not fun. But you'll help yourself greatly by telling friends, family, and close co-workers. Tell them how symptoms affect you and if they restrict your life. Thank them in advance for their consideration and support. Don't downplay or dismiss your need for understanding and help. You deserve to be heard.
If you or your friends and family need detailed information, check The First Year: IBS book.
You are not alone!
P.S. If you have any questions or comments I'd love to hear them - just reply to this email to reach me directly. I am overwhelmed with emails but I try to answer everyone.
To taming your tummy,
Heather
