How many of you have friends who are never ill?
It's just that I have spent most of the day feeling very uncomfortable with cronic wind, stomach pain and nausea, not to mention the latter part of today on the loo.
I suffer IBS, Gerd, Anxiety of all sorts, have Coeliac Disease, Tachychardia and probably something else which hasn't been discovered yet.
I am being admitted to hospital on Tuesday for a Gastro-endoscopy and Flexi-Sygmoidoscopy (yes I won the raffle with this one). It's not nerves because the Gastroscopy will be my SIXTH in about ten years and admittedly although the Sygmoidoscopy is a first, I have had a Colonoscopy before so I'm not too bothered.
My rant this afternoon is the fact that I don't smoke or drink. I eat only healthy food and have been on a very strict Gluten Free diet since the discovery of the Coeliac Disease nearly twenty years ago. I am not overweight, blah blah blah! On the other hand, I do have a friend who eats double servings most of the time, drinks with every meal except breakfast, smokes about a pack of high tar cigs a day, is overweight, never excercises and has never had a medical in all his 56 years!!!
Needless to say, he is never sodding ill!
One more point..............he never worries!!
