Hello!

I have recently gone through the nightmare that is RCE and am happy to say I am symptom and pain free! However, in the midst of it when I tried to find success stories online, it seemed like I could find very few positive stories where people actually recovered. So, for that reason I wanted to make sure I sit down and share my own story with you today. Believe me, I know how you need some encouragement... Chances are, you're barely able to read this right now and your screen...

However, I know it is not normal eye strain, because at times my focus still switches back to swallowing, bladder, etc, and thus the awareness is completely OCD related. Has anyone...

So I'm not even getting unemployment because my boss is trying to fight me on it and say I quit. Yeah, right, like I would be stupid enough to quit a job without another job lined up. I am still having stomach problems, but they are not as bad since the gastroenterologist put me on a really strong probiotic called VSL#3 (it's some kind of medical food that you have to present a card to the pharmacist to get from behind the counter). So I take that every morning and Bentyl when I get cramps. I don't...
