Hi Jamiesonsmommy and welcome! I am sorry about your recent diagnosis. It can be a scary time. However, hopefully you can start appropriate treatment and start to feel better.

I suggest doing some homework around the forum before meeting with your GI. Most likely, you'll discuss the many treatment options, so familiarize yourself with them over in the Treatment forum. Also, I suggest writing down your symptoms and questions, so you don’t forget anything during your appointment. Finally, bring someone with you; an extra set of ears can be really helpful!

So sorry to hear that you're going through all of this but I think this is definitely the best place to get some information and connect with others going through something similar. It's usually just reassuring knowing that you're not the only person in the world going through with it. Hoping the best for you!
