ooooo i bet theyd love that lol. People probably still wouldn't realise wat us IBD's go through :(

hi luna13 you could try that but it would probably just make it into little hard powdery bits i would of thought which would make it worse. There is actually dissolvable iron you can buy isn't there? i know it is a litle bit more expensive than tablet form but i can imagine that may help a great...

I know the gurgling and bubbling feeling in your belly along with trapped air i get that numerous times daily. People don't realise that when you need the toilet you gotta go and that this ain't gonna go away like some cold. I feel quite ignorant sometimes as i'm in the middle of talking to...

Hi jill. I just don't feel i have the confidence to go to them when they have knocked me down for so many years. I don't think i will even be listened to. I've tried going to the doctors and they just prescribed me anti depressants. i want to scream at them I'm down because of the illness not...

whysoserious i can really empathise what you are going through. None of my family or friends really listen to me or understand they think i am being lazy and a hyperchondriac. Unfortunately, every one i know either doesn't know what it is or thinks it is a little belly ache now and again. How...

Hi Melody, I would say bloating is my most common symptom and i have exactly like you. I wake up in the morning and my stomach is fine and then in the space of around an hour i'm bloated. and its all day and its painful. sometimes I can't even drink. But I also get bloated if i don't eat by a...

Oh my god i am so sorry for this and i can relate to you. it's awful feeling like you just can't get anything done because you're so tired you're just falling asleep where ever you are. The only thing i can say to you is you're obviously dealing with it in every day life and therefore, even...

aw David I've had my vent and advice and support and it's really comforting to know you're not the only person going through it. Because when you're on that downer and depressed, it van feel like it. Like i said i haven't researched anything just resolved myself to it so i didn't even know what...

Thank you for the help David I do really appreciate it. I can imagine it was extremely hard to be diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis. As harsh as it is to say, doctors don't have enough time to fit in all in these days.

Hi David Yes i have been reading through some posts and fair play some people seem to have a terrible time of it. I can only say that i admire every single person on this forum and who deals with all these diseases every day. It is not easy, but they are all doing it with their head held...

Hey Kathleen what is pm? so sorry i am so new to this.:confused2: Oh my god I can't believe how similar your life has been to my life in regards to crohns. I was a full time dancer when i was diagnosed and I never went back. Every time I could not dance every one just thought i was making...

Hi David, Thank you for that advice. I will definately go see my doctor and ask for those tests. Even though i have had it for so long I haven't actually researched it just got on with that i know that's awful. Thank you so much for the support i appreciate it soooo much i wasn't havin a moan...

Hi Rachel I am new too and sought out this forum to talk to people about the disease. I am very sad you have seemed to have had such a bad time of it. It is a cruel disease that no one understands unless they have it. You seem to be doing well though so am really happy for you and i wish you...
