I have severe IBS and post Cholecystectomy Syndrome. I take Colestipol for the post Cholecystectomy Syndrome. There is a fine line between it being helpful and making my life hell. The dr. Started me on 1 gram a day. Way too much, made my insides a brick of sh_t! I switched to powder form and adjusted accordingly. It takes about 1/16th of a teaspoon for me. It seems to build in strength over time and constipates me. When that happens, I'M in trouble, I know it's the start of 3 days of serious pain! Today is day 3, I am usually back in control after 3 days, but this is getting old, I can't imagine living the rest of my life this way! 7 years has been more than enough and I see no end in sight. Just venting, everyone elose gets tired of hearing me bitch. Lol. They don't understand how it feels to live at an average pain level of 4 all day every day after 3 hours of complete hell every morning with pain levels at 5-8. I'M in and out of depression like a yoyo. Just exhausted and trying to find some strength somewhere. Sly

I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field. I was trying to get out of teaching and I feel so devastated. I felt this crushing feeling when I signed the paperwork and when I was in the meetings. I know that sounds so dramatic but it is how I felt. It...
