That was so funny thank you for sharing that with me!

Thanks. I have the mirilax Gatorade prep and have already bought the Gatorade and jello :)

Thanks guys I just read on my info sheet that I can't have orange drinks either so I stuck with some other flavor. I appreciate the nausea advice too!!

I am supposed to have two bottles of G2 gatorade. I was thinking of getting orange and glacier freeze, which is like a light blue color. Can I have these because I know you shouldn't have red or purple dyes? Can I not have orange because of the red dye? I read a couple people said they drank...

Around where do you live? I live around Livonia right now.

Only about 2.5 weeks left to wait. I saw a horrible rheumatologist that brushed me off completely and he seemed set on diagnosing me with fibromyalgia as soon as I walked in the door. My reg doctor tested me for arthritises and lupus. I've also been tested for some back things and various joint...

Yah that's the main reason why I've been putting it off for so long. That and I was scared about the colonoscopy. However now the pain is do bad I'm taking Vicodin once or twice a day now. I hate it but it is the only thing that makes my stomach feel normal. Yah it used to be 1000 but it says...

I have only ever had an MRI for half my back and brain. I wouldn't ask for it unless the dr says I need it because my insurance deductible is like 3000 so I would have to pay out of pocket. Same goes for the colonoscopy but at least that makes a little more sense. However if I don't have crohns...

No I appreciate the honesty. I would rather hear that then what many people think is helpful(it's not the end of the world, at least you aren't dying. Etc.) I already know it could be much worse but that doesn't mean I'm not suffering. If I do have this thing I'm going to need all the help I can...

Yes I would really like some answers but I can honestly say I am very scared and will be very upset if I have it. I wish I didn't have to wait and I could have it sooner!

Also what kind of crohns do you have? (I'm assuming its crohns and not uc?)

Hi. Yes I just started taking about 2000 Iu of vitamin D3 a couple of days ago. I think he just meant to say he doesn't like to on people my age unless he really thinks it is really necessary. It sounded like he really thinks there's a good chance I have it and maybe that was his way of telling...

If anyone needs someone to talk to or vent to I am more than happy to listen. I have lots of time on my hands (if i'm not sleeping :P) or in class. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk or get to know each other. I am new to this forum and I need support as well! I know how family can be and...

Oh sorry I just realized that those tests were already mentioned, but they are important!

You might want to get tested for low vitamin D as well. I found out I am extremely deficient and it can cause fatigue and pain. Also make sure you get your CRP and Sed rate tested because those are indicators that something is going on. Hope you find out what is bothering you, I know how...

So, to introduce myself, my name is Heather. I have been struggling with what I thought was IBS. I usually have pretty bad constipation. But I get these horrible attacks of diarrhea that causes crazy pain and i have like 4 or 5 bms in a row. It seems to be getting worse and cutting out certain...

Thank you, I will go to that forum and repost. Normally I don't have much anxiety but this has really got me going. I just hate not knowing. I forgot to mention that a few weeks ago I lost about 10 lbs in a week. I think I have only lost a couple more pounds but i have been keeping track of it...
