Dear Karen:
Thank you for your kind and encouraging comments. I was especially
moved when you shared of your daughter's experiences. I was 22 when I
first felt ill, but can not imagine the trauma of dealing with this type
of pain at 13. I'm happy to hear she is feeling so much better.
My daughter is 12 and is showing signs of developing inflammatory bowel
disease. We are on a watch and wait system at the present, and it hurts
to see her suffer so.
What bothers me the most is the fact that most Doctors do not fully
understand, or recognize this condition. It is so easy to blame the
patient if the diagnosis is not crystal clear. That is what I am
dealing with the most. I try to take a small dosage of Vicoden each
day, but some Doctors treat me like I am only after drugs. I am seeking
relief and freedom from this chronic pain that so few people understand.
Thanks again for your response.
