I am a very upbeat person and always ready to hang out with the girls. I have not been out for the last two weeks, because I have been feeling like crap. Every time I ate something, I was bending over from pain in my abdomen. I also noticed that my abdomen appeared to be swollen. After doing a search on the internet, it sounded like I had symptoms of IBS. I decided to go to the doctor the next day, and he was able to confirm my suspicions. I am just grateful that it was not something that was life threatening.
