Chief923's Story

I've always had IBS since I was 12 then I got in a car accident and they removed part of my colon enlarged intestines and my pancreas was damaged so now I have severe stomach issues with all that going on and I'm in pain almost every day. I haven't lived without pain for the last 20 years and I live with a heating pad Non-Stop. I have one in the living room and my bedroom wherever I'm at and then I have the ones that I can wear when we go on trips. I have to buy the ones I can wrap around me and pack heating pads to go with me in about major accidents at stores and stuff and I'm only 45 years old and this has been going on since I'm 26 and now I'm having problems women problems and they can't do my hysterectomy because of all the surgeries and they're afraid they do that don't end up with the class me back and at this point I don't know what the best answer is cuz I'm either constipated 1 month before or I'm going and I'm just frustrated and I don't know what to do nothing helping me
