Hey dudettes,
No, they never really told me what I had. They all agreed I couldn't possibly have IBS, but no one gave me a better answer, so that's why I still pester y'all here
. The endocrinologist also doesn't seem to think that my Graves' disease is causing the diarrhea. He said an overactive thyroid can cause loose stools and increased frequency, but not 10+ times/day of watery diarrhea!
Ugh, I don't even care anymore! I swear, I am just absolutely done stressing about any health-related issues. Diarrhea? Pop some Immodium. Heart palpitations? Beta-blockers are a wonder. Insomnia? Right on, I can have more fun since I don't have to spend as much time sleeping!
Sometimes I feel sorry for myself or I feel very crappy but most other times I just think to myself...Sarah...you'll be a doctor soon enough, you can fix yourself then!
