Hi, Lexi,

I agree with everything you said. I personally don't have IBC, but I have known a lot of girls from this site and in real life who have had it and almost all of them told me that in the begining, it was like some sort of infection...almost all of them were just like you and me...very healthy...hardly ever got any viral illnesses...I was like you too...I had chicken pox and I caught that really bad HONG KONG FLU that hit, I think, in the late 60's or early '70's...I was younger than nine and can't remember all the details, but I will never forget that flu. My whole family got it and we all piled up on the couch, looking wretched and I remember how my poor mother somehow kept going, sick herself but taking care of us all...

Thanks for your comments,
Gina
