Hi everyone. So I just had one of the worst visits to the doctor ever. Has anyone ever made you feel horrible about complaining about this? I have had a really rough summer, with attacks about every week. I'm staying at college for the summer and trying to have fun, but these attacks have really gotten in the way of everything. So, after being really good about taking my fiber, I went back to the doctor. I wanted some advice about how to get through the pain. He totalyl blew me off. He said I hadn't been on fiber long enough, so I should "take a tylenol & use a heating pad"...i really could have died. COME ON! If I took 50 tylenol, I know I'd still be crying on my couch. I'm so frustrated. I'm from Ohio...does anyone know of a good IBS friendly doctor around? Also, I get the worst attacks right at the beginning of my period. When I mentioned this, he quickly said to get the gynocologist b/c 'thats not his job'. Well, I know that...I just wondered how the pill would affect my horrid stomach. BLEH. I'm so dissapointed, and I hate feeling so sick. I think the stress of that visit also caused another attack. So I'm cripped over in pain. This really isn't fun...but I'm glad there are people out there that truly get it...
