Thanks to everyone who replied, it's so nice to have such supportive people around who can give suggestions (or at least help you calm down). I've been trying to just relax and assume it's nothing serious, although I know it's not that I didn't pay because we don't have to pay for appointments here in Canada...so we'll have to see what happens. I'm going to call them tomorrow and I'll keep you guys posted.
Thanks again, it really means a lot

Hey Everyone,
I heard back from the doctor today and it turns out my blood tests showed that I was anemic, so I'm breathing a sigh of relief Not saying being anemic is good, but I'm glad it wasn't something more serious. I've just posted in the Eating for IBS forum for some tips on Iron supplements and how to increase iron in my diet, but I wanted to say thanks again for everyone's kind words and reassurances.
It's ironic, that nasty GI doc I saw not too long ago who refused to listen to me and do any tests other than a colonoscopy. When I asked him to do a Celiac test he said there was no point because a. I wasn't think enough (GRRRR) and b. my iron levels were fine. He was looking at blood work from 2001! I told him that and he just shrugged and said he saw no need to repeat blood work. What an idiot!
Sorry, just venting 
Thanks again,
Kelly

"MMMM Liver"
"Iron helps us play" hehe, gotta love the Simpsons.
Good to hear it wasn't something really serious. My Mum has low Iron as well so she takes some Iron suppliments. Unfortunately red meat is a no no for IBS cause it's great for that. (My Mum always made sure we had lots of milk and red meat and I could never figure out why her cooking would make me sick)
Peaches I'm glad you find the Canadian spellings cool Now we just have to make the Canadian accent seem cool just like the Australian and British ones.
Step 1: get the Americans to start spelling like us
Step 2: get them speaking like us
Step 3: get them watching the NHL playoffs (GO LEAFS GO!!!!)
Step 4: get them all wearing toques
Step 5: Take over the world!
(we've already got Jen )
We just have to work on the manners of our custom's agents for Bev.
