Hello,
Hey, you and I are the same age. I used to be IBS-D, but within the last two months, I became mostly C and sometimes D. I experienced sudden bloating, gas, and cramping. It was much different than what I was used to. The Dr. diagnosed me with an intestinal infection and I was put on medication for it; plus I found this web site at that same time and started the diet; which has helped tremendously!!
Anyway, my doctor wants to do a colonoscopy on me, but I'm still waiting to be approved for insurance so I can move on with this! I got on the boards that night and expressed my fear that it might be cancer, and it wasn't long before Bevrs had me laughing. (Her line about the trashy novel really cracked me up for some reason!) Well, I'm getting side tracked! Hate when I do that! I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone.
I hate to think of you worrying cause I know how that feels and it's pretty darned scary, isn't it? Our imaginations can just make everything worse. At least you didn't drag your feet about making an appointment and getting checked out; so that's good. Let us know what you learn from your doctor,
Terri
