Thankful to find this forum

It's hard to describe to people how even though I look fine I am uncomfortable the majority of the time. It's so nice to find a place where people understand what you're going through. 15 months in so far and it took 9 to get officially diagnosed after colonoscopy. I have been experimenting with diet and my gastro has been experimenting with numerous unhelpful medications. Thanks to a random video on Youtube I picked up the book, which lead my here, and now I'm in the process of getting the testing for food sensitivities. I'm thankful for all the active users on here for continuing to reply to newbies .. it's given me hope and that's something I haven't had a lot of the past 15 months.

Hi,

Welcome to the community. I agree with you. I’m currently in the first phase, the elimination phase. It’s been a tough journey, and whenever I lose motivation due to a setback, I come here to find some comfort. In my case, researching and reading success stories helps me a lot. I hope it helps you too.

I wish you lots of luck and encouragement.

A big hug,
Marta
