I think I made it!!!!!

Postby diane » Thu Mar 01, 2007 12:15 am

Well everyone I can 't believe today is 90 days!!! I 've been worried the last couple weeks because I"ve been expierancing terrible gas. But I guess it is just something I will deal with for now till I figure out if i"m going to need to take gas x awhile or maybe benefiber or something. I ate a slice of pure heaven last week (pizza) and it was sooooo good. It was my first one in 3 years.. I loved it and actually ate 5 pieces . It stayed in and all was good. I think I will wait till summer and maybe try an ice cream cone! We'll see. I want to thank everyone for being here for me especially at the beginning when I never heard of c diff. I truly am greatful to all of you. I will post here forever to try and help when I can. I hope I can stay healthy (although I still have leg aches) I guess its from the c diff. 3 Long years was rough for me. I hope this is the end and I can start to live more normal and not worry all the time. Will I still worry? OH YES but my mind can be alittle more at ease!

Diane,
Yippee for you. Keep eating that pizza. You are one of our true success stories. You kept trying new things, supported others, and were remarkably cheerful & "unwhiney."

We are so proud of you!!!!! Enjoy!

Thank you everyone!!!! YOu guys are awesome!:) I have to say this sight got me through 3 years without it would of been alot rougher. I can't believe I finally made it after trying everything. I even went as far as eating a yeast cake asmy doctor suggested.. YUCK!! that was gross and it didn't work..lol.. but I tried it. I hope this shows everyone who is down and thinking oh geez it will never go away that it will. Keep your chins up and think positive. I always tried to think that it could be worse... even though 20 times a day was rough but I was still mobile.. Thank you Bobbie, I am greatful to you and Lauren for doing such a great job and having this site. There have been a few people who have helped me . I will still post here and am here if anyone just wants to talk........ Today I think it really hit me that I am free for now and hope to stay that way! I had pizza again tonight..lol
