Lynda, I started looking around online at glasses when I first found out I couldn't fight not wearing regular glasses/contacts daily in January. But, never was terribly brave about actually putting an order in. One of the guys at my husband's work actually uses this place and told my husband...

Thanks!:) My reading glasses and these new ones are a little different so I can tell them apart. Reading ones are gold with full rim and new ones are silver with half rim. I kind of wanted some that I could dress up if I couldn't wear my contacts for some reason. I don't mind glasses really...

An update. We decided to try monthly contacts. I'm still having trouble with those even though I've been using them for almost 3 months now. So, may finish the ones I've got along with the 2 week ones until I have my appointment next year. At that time, I may ask about something different...

Been back on the Canasa suppositories for almost a week now. The Canasa seemed to work immediately, still get some blood but only had an accident that once. So, I'm thinking I maybe on the mend. It'll take some time to heal, but that's to be expected. Was pretty busy and stressful...

Yes, my husband and I have seen that. I think, if we hadn't boughten ours we'd have thought about buying that! The one we got was from amazon and it comes in a kit that attaches to your toilet. I should use it more often, but haven't quite gotten the hang of using it. I know that...

Oh, I hate that!!! No accidents last night at work, just a near miss and don't appreciate those, but can take those over the accidents! I'm in charge tonight and tomorrow, so more stress for me. I'm hoping it'll behave itself while I'm in charge. Yes, I've told a few more since Saturday...

Thanks guys! :) Yeah, I'll talk with him when we get the chance. Today I started too late, so even if he was there today he was gone before I got there. But, it'll happen. I keep a little kit in my locker at all times just in case. Spare pair of pants, underwear, a plastic bag for the dirty...

Not the most comforting feeling, that's for sure. I think all the trauma of that is why my stomach started hurting and gave me pain afterwards. Used the Canasa suppositories last night at bed time. Trying to get this thing under control before it's totally out of control. A little better...

Today I had an accident first time in a long time at work and nearly a couple more. What's worse is that it happened in front of a manager/assistant director of mine. Can't remember if this manager knows about my IBD or not, but if not he'll need to know soon. Partly because I'm afraid he...

I hope they can get things worked out for you! Sending lots of hugs your way!!!

Stress will do all kinds of things to your stomach and body. It's just not a good thing for us! I hope you can get some answers on monday. Please keep us updated and am sending you lots of hugs!

I'm not sure about wearing ear plugs every day for this long. My husband has a career in which he has to wear ear plugs quite often throughout the day when he works around running airplanes outside. Reason being that he's a mechanic and the big ear muff type things he uses doesn't protect very...

I think I'd let them know and tell them that it hasn't gotten any better...

My goodness!!! It's been crazy around there... I'm continually hoping for something to FINALLY help for you. And, sending you lots of hugs!!!

How long has it been since the surgery noguts? Depending on that, if I were you I'd think about calling my medical team! Sending you lots of hugs!!!

Even being in remission mine acts up during that time. My GI didn't act too surprised when I told him, so it sounds like it's natural for us ladies.

I believe Granny has some form of it. But, she also has Alzheimer's and is in her last stages of it so we really can't tell much about what all she really has. Mom has diverticulitis and was diagnosed sometime within the last 10 years or so. She's also been hospitalized once or twice from it...

Any updates Kyle? Looks like it's been a couple days since you last wrote. I hope things have gotten better for you, or that you've been able to get a hold of your medical team...

I'm afraid I had to look up to see what 6k was in pounds. My goodness though, a little over 13lbs is a lot to lose! I too would be pretty upset to find that out. I hope they can find something to work when you go for your appointment. Sending lots of hugs your way. Please keep us updated.
