On a related note, many years ago on a popular social media platform, a well-meaning relative publicly tagged me in a post with links to an article about Irritable Bowel Syndrome and I was mortified.
I was misdiagnosed as having IBS, but basically entire GI tract doesn’t work as a complication of Ehlers-Danlos. As I tell my roommate, who gets to hear me bitch from time to time, I don’t have the luxury of being squeamish or easily ashamed.
Even if this was about irritable bowel syndrome, the squirrel would be in the wrong. You`re in control of the questions you ask, it would only be TMI if you make it.
as a long time IBS suffer, i'm grateful to have a fun new name for my condition —
"I won't be getting out of the apartment much before noon because of my interesting bat stuff."
