Hi, Thanks for the reply. I am actually thinking about going into GI. I had been planning on OB/Gyn before, but I think I could use my experiences as strengths in GI. Also, since my sister has colitis, I have a lot of personal experience with this stuff. Hopefully I will make it! I have felt a lot better the last few days cause I have stayed home to work on my own. Guess I just need to find a good schedule that works for me. I am actually married. I had been with my boyfriend for 7.5 years before we got married (last July!). Luckily we have known each other for even longer and really are completely comfortable together. I really dont know what I would do without him. He is wonderful and so understanding. He even eats my tofu and veggies and fibery foods most of the time. I think I would be a hermit and just live in my own little world if I was single. A lot of people here in Chapel Hill are vegetarian/vegan and do pilates and yoga and run a lot like I do, but I still would have to deal with the gas and bloating. Sort of impinges on your desire to go out, and could be embarrassing in an intimate situation. I also think I would not take as good of care of myself and would probably still have an eating disorder that would have gotten totally out of hand. He really keeps me keeping good care of my stomach! Good to talk to you! Good luck, you just need to find someone who has some sort of other quirks or something so that they understand! I am not sure where to find nice guys though. I have known all my good guy friends through Billy and college.
