IBS Chat Sessions:I don't know if many of you are aware that there used to be a chat session for UK IBS sufferers in the chatroom on sunday evenings. I used to run it but had to give it up because the timing clashed with my job.Since there seems to be a fair number of us UK sufferers about, I'm considering restarting the chat session if there is enough interest that way we are all in one chatroom at same time.I am available monday, tuesday, thursday evenings if any of these would suit. My broadband connection gets a bit wobbly at 9pm, so would something like 7.30 suit?Let me know what you think and I will contact Jeff to update the details.Clair

Hi Chas and welcome -don't know if anything has come of this chat meeting, but we are going to have a chat on Sunday - June 12, 2005 - we used to have UK chats at 8pm your time years ago and again in the evening US time and some of the Brits would come for both. As a test, I am hosting a chat on Sunday evening US time, but will be half midnight UK time. But if you are a night owl, you are most welcome to join us - I am hoping some Brits do- if there is interest, then we will organize one for 8pm UK time as well in the future.I am in the US but I help Mike Mahoney with the IBS Audio Program - he is in Warrington, not far from you!Hope you can join us!

Hey everyone, hope ur all feeling OK, or better anyway!Tpying this from Cambridge tonight, although i'm often around Ipswich at weekends catching up with everyone. It's so good to hear that it's not just me going through all this hassle... i've seen lots of good ideas and advice that i'll definitely have to try out. Be nice to hear from anyone who fancies a chat, it's such a nice change to be able to discuss things with people who actually understand where ur coming from and don't give you that look!
Speak soon x

Just found this forum, looks great. My doctor at the moment is useless so would be great to speak with other IBS sufferers to share advice and experiences. Did anything ever happen about those chat sessions?Becci

Hello , yes I am from west yorkshire ...had IBS /D for 17 years .. but never managed to meet another person with it in all these years .. So frustrating trying to get someone who doesn`t have it to understand all the limitations it places on you and any husband /partner you may have . It would be so nice to actually be able to meet other people with it ..and become good sound friends ..giving each other the support we all need to have,and never having to feel so guilty about not being able to go out ... or making arrangements then having to say sorry but I cant go ..then seeing the dissappointment in their faces . soo very frustrating take care all Milly
