Thanksgiving--One Year Anniversary

Thanksgiving was the one-year anniversary of my physical meltdown. Although I was able to actually eat at the Thanksgiving dinner table this year, I had chest pains for three days leading up to the meal, and a few difficult days after the meal where I panicked about what to eat. The IBS flared up for the three days AFTER Thanksgiving, and I had stomach cramps. I also had that severe weak feeling as if I hadn't eaten in 12 hours. I took the sedative twice during this past weekend, and it didn't cure the symptoms, but made me not care so much that I was suffering.

Yesterday, everything tasted bad, but I shoved it down anyway.
