because I don't have an icon full of tears....

[roxy]

IBS is the devil. I can never go back to work again. Oy. I had to embarrass the heck out of myself today and run out the building because I don't know about anyone else, but home is the only place I can be when things are, shall we say, blowing up. Fortunately I don't live too far from work. Hey! Isn't it great we can share like this? Yeah, it is.

soooo...I guess maybe I should go back to my doctor and get some paperwork on this. I've had to bust out of the job almost every Friday the last two months. I know it looks suspicious. If I was a young thing, they'd probably have booted me already. Lord, I'm so tired of looking like an ass. So to speak.

*sigh* I just needed to vent a bit and share my pain about my disobedient bowels.

Still friends?

Once at work a woman was in my office asking me about something and I started vomiting right in front of her....into a trashcan but there you go. It was coming out one way or the other and it was coming out at that very moment. After that she left all questions to email or the phone. Point is, if you live long enough, eventually you will lose it one way or the other at work!

True, true...my goodness, that was kind of a spectacular way to lose it, too. :)

*HUGS*

Thank you!

In the measured tones of a PSA:

You are not alone.

Yes, get a doctor's note.

Also, why Friday, I wonder . . . ?

[tabaqui]

Hey, no bad there - put those peons in their place!! :)

Liebchen! Mein hassenpfeffer!

Isn't it weird? Friday is no different than any other day, not at all. I don't understand why it always seems to hit that day.

*nods* I'm seriously considering becoming a hermit. Sure, the benefits are lousy....

*clings back, sobs quietly*

*searches your pockets for chocolate*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Thank you, beloved! I need all the hugs I can get! *hugs back hard*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*falls all over you*

It's like your body deciding it hates you. :(

Paying me back for years and years of pizza with the works and chocolate malteds, or something. *more pouting of epic proportions*

all I have to offer here is *hugs* to infinity.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Never underestimate the healing powers of hugs! *grabs all the hugs*

[sage]

awww, poor you. Call your doctor, or at least talk to his/her nurse and tell them what's going on. There might be better meds or some hidden Friday-specific cause no one's realized yet.

*hugs*

*hugs, gently*

Hope you are feeling better today.

Friends forever.

*Hugs lovingly*

*hugs* I had the same problem last year, but for me it meant that I could NOT make it to work on time for about a month. It was ridiculous. And I now know every place between home and work that has a public restroom. And which places have the best ones. *g* I'm like a restroom connoisseur.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we went through that about two years ago and they gave me a medication that more or less didn't do much except look pretty in my pillbox. I think you're right--it's time to talk with them again, much as I hate going. And it's not even the doctor, he's an okay guy. It's the whole office thing, I guess. *yuck*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

On and off, not too bad! It's the off bits that are making those frown lines in my forehead deeper. I blame myself. And the cinnabon. And the coffee, not decaf, which is also the devil's brew.

*hugs back*

*what the hell--clings like a limpet*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

oh yeah!

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I know, right? And I'm late a huge part of the time, too! Stupid innards.

I'm like a restroom connoisseur.

Heeeee! I like that! :)

Oh, no. I'm sorry. My mother had ulcerative colitis, so I sort of understand. (((hugs)))

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Oh, your poor mother, that must have been awful for her.

I'm grateful that it's not that bad--but relatively mild as it is, it still makes things difficult some times.
