- It really makes me frustrated that it is acceptable in our society for people to say "oh I am just being OCD" about things when they do not have OCD. Ithink it minimizes the real pain and suffering that people who really have OCD go through. Anybody...
- Hi,I have been volunteering with an organization for awhile now. It is really the only social outlet I have. There is a girl there who is very nasty and mean. We use to be friends but she used me so much (she never offered to pay for lunch or when...
- I am going for a colonoscopy this week and I just found out that I can not eat AT ALL the day before the colonoscopy (just drink liquids that you can "see" through like bouillon and jello. I am worried because an empty stomach triggers my gastritis...
- Hi All,I came across this group by chance and I can't believe it. There are others out there like me! I always thought I was "weird" because so many things seem to bother me that don't bother other people. It is nice to know I am not alone in this.
- I took Levsin (antispasmodic) last week and since the day I took it I have not felt one hunger pain. I stopped taking it immediately, but the hunger pangs have not returned. I can not tell if I am hungry or not. I just eat until I feel that I have...
- Hi, Against my better judgment, I took the Levsin (Hyoscyamine) for rapid trasit bowels last night. I had terrible terrible nightmares and felt like I was in a brain fog all morning. I now have zero appetite and feel like the food is stuck in my...
- The other day I had an idea that why can't we just try and live without anxiety/ feelings of depression etc, "just for today" like they do in AA or NA. I know our problem is different, but it seems that if you can just do something for today it...
- Hi All, so I was told about a month ago I might have stomach cancer. I never heard the word MIGHT. I just had anxiety and was pretty convinced something bad was going to show up on the tests. Well thank the Good Lord, they found nothing. That was on...
- I have had hemorrhoids in the past, but they always hurt as far as I can tell. However, yesterday I was walking up a very steep hill and I didn't feel anything. When I went to the restroom there was a little light red blood from my rectum and there...
- Hi,My GI doc has prescribed Hyomax after seeing that I have quick emptying of the small intestine on a small bowel series. I picked up the medicine and when I saw that it "may cause blurred vision" I became wary and started reading more about it. It...
- I went to see my psychiatrist and I told him I can not take another episode of anxietyt. The 60 mgs of Prozac I am on do not stop the anxiety when I have extremely stressful situations like medical procedures. I was doing good with my homeopathic...
- I am very happy that my results came back negative for everything except fast emptying of the small intestine (which I already knew was a problem for me). Apparently, the other doctor who said my weight loss and pain in my stomach were insidious...
- I have my GERD and gastritis under control with a bunch of supplements I've been taking. I went to my new GI and she was so nice and helpful and spent nearly an hour and 1/2 talking with me and explaining things to me but she said I need to stop...
- Hi, I got terrible diarrhea last night after dinner. I had a cheese sauce and think that could be the culprit. I took a lactaid, but something still made me sick. I was getting ready to take Pepto-Bismol and then read that it has salicylates, which...
- Has this worked for anyone? I am trying it (the brand I bought tastes hideous! How could honey not taste good!) and today is the second day. I haven't noticed any difference yet. I read somewhere that it only works if you have h pylori but then I've...
