Thank you

Just wanted to say that although it's awful, crappy and painful for all of us , it is reassuring to know that other people go through this and understand how debilitating it can be. I've had to cancel things and generally not go out because of this ...I didn't realise how bad it could get until the last year. I used to think it was something that happened for a temporary period of time when under stress and yet it has been going on for so many months now...

Thank you for being honest and encouraging me to be honest about it.

I think this forum is such a blessing . Knowing others are there to help and support, understanding the pain and how debilitating IBS is , is so comforting and reassuring. Thank you houseofpain for sharing, I do pray there are better days ahead for you and all those who suffer from IBS. God bless 😘
