Thank you for the advice, Joanne. I really appreciate it! I live about 2 hours away from the University of Michigan, so I will try getting an appointment with a GI there! I'm definitely better about being my own advocate now then I have in the past, and I'll continue to push for answers.

The one thing that has helped me is these blogs of advice and strength from total strangers. I’ve been desperate, scared and I’ve felt crazy. Everyone has given be more courage and advice here than any doctors office. It’s a true pleasure to get these from people who are unfortunately suffering like myself, others who mentor to help you get through those moments you don’t understand and just people who take time to help you. I know I have a big decision about getting surgery come January but right now I’ve got lots of friends who lend an ear and I’m blessed. We are here for you too for the long run.
Feel better. Big HUG…Joanne
