Does anyone here deal with IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)? Does it affect how you live your life daily? Constipation or Diarrhea, Stoma

Stomach issues are the worst for me. Mine is more so Acid reflux... It's horrible some nights I wake up and acidic foods are trying to come up... puke style... so I have to take like Rolaids sometimes not all the time only when necessary. I'm allergic to tomato paste and mushrooms and other stuff. When it does happen it feels like a got the flu its horrible but its a living#BPD #Borderline #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #PTSD #Bipolar

Holy Mountain by Melanie R.

Holy Mountain by Melanie R.

I looked to the hills
where great mountains stand.
For all of my help
is from God’s righteous hand.
They reach to the heavens as they do declare,
the signs of His wonder-
His glory, and care.

The height of His Majest….

My Rock,
cornerstone.
Atop there with Him,
I feel comfort-

I’m home.

The Rock that was thrown down,
rejected,
then rolled…ooh..ooh…

Now holds me together,
shows mysteries unknown.

Mt. Tabor’s prominence;
Mt. Carmel stood tall-
proving…
there’s One God that reigns over all!!

In His holy mountain,
with Him by my side,
in hearing His word,
growing faith,
I abide.

The gush of the water
that came from the stone,
Rained living water;
restoring me whole!

Thank You Jesus!

Isaiah 48:22
And they did not thirst
when He led them through the deserts.
He caused the water
to flow from the rock for them;
He also split the rock,
and the waters gushed out.

Stay Strong Mighty Warriors,
and God be with you all! 🙏💪🏻🏔️

I'm new here!

Hi, my name is Linda. I'm here because I have been in the process of getting several diagnosis, and awaiting others to get started, and searching for clues about symptoms I'm experiencing with no answers. My feelings can be best described as being on an deserted island with no compass, no resources to help me survive, wondering if I will ever find my way back home.#MightyTogether #RheumatoidArthritis #Lupus #myopathyoverlapsyndrome #Osteoarthritis #SupraventricularTachycardia #Dyslexia #SleepApnea #Asthma #heartmurmur #Hyperacusis #Tinnitus #Costochondritis #ChronicPain #GERD #Chronicbronchitis #IBS #OpticNeuritis #anemic
