Thank you for this. I will ask my GI for the report on tuesday when I see her

Thank you again @ weisssoccermom You're absolutely correct in EVERYTHING that you just said to me! I really have to let that sink in and really take it with me. It's true. And when I am in a rational state of mind, I can think just like that project that behavior as well. This whole thing (the anxie...

@ weisssoccermom Thank you so very much for taking the time to respond to me. Your post truly does mean a lot, and I think it really let certain things sink in for me.

Hi everyone, I've been reading these forums for a few months now, and I started when I first had my fear of CC due to some symptoms I was having (mainly diarrhea every few days and cramping). My GI doctor said she was pretty sure that it was IBS. But then some members on here told me to push for a c...

Thank you both so much for your responses. I think you both are right, I should just save up and do the scope. I feel like no matter what the GI says or my doctor says, I'm going to still have anxiety over this, which probably isn't going to help the situation I am in with having diarrhea. So I just...

Hi, everyone. First off I just want to say I'm so inspired by your stories that I've been reading these last few days while trying to cope with my own anxieties. I don't have too many people to talk to about my concerns, because it just gets chalked up to "health anxiety" or that I'm being...
