Hey everyone :D
You wouldn't believe how glad I am to have found this place, I can't wait to get looking at some of the help and advice on here.
Anyway, a bit of background about me...Since I was 15 I've suffered with tummy trouble (am now 22). Been to the doctors countless times over the years and have been diagnosed with IBS, "grumbling appendix", food poisoning and most recently heliobacter pylori (tests came back negative).
The last discussion I had with the doctor was that I was suffering from anxiety and stress - which is causing all the problems.
I managed to get rid of this a few years back, and it didn't come back until Christmas last year. How it went I'll never know, as I drank and smoked waayyy too much [8)]
It came back due to my boyfriend picking up a stomach bug, and was sick several times over a few hours. All of a sudden it got me running to the bathroom too. Since then I've been suffering these little anxiety attacks which are really starting to get me down.
My boyfriend and I have just bought a new flat, and are due to move in within the next month, but with all the excitement its bringing lots of heartburn on - I can't win [Sigh...]
Anyway after reading some of these posts on here I no longer feel alone and it makes me feel a whole lot better that people will understand :)
Sorry about the essay!!!
