You know, when you're going through something, it manifests itself in different ways.

And for me, it really took a toll on my body.

I developed severe IVS and like when I say, like severe, it was really bad.

And I went to see a couple GI specialists and they basically were like, you know what?

Like you just have IVS.

There's nothing really formally that we can do about it.

You're just going to kind of have to live this way.

So it felt like my needs weren't kind of being heard and it felt like really hard knowing

that I was so young and this is kind of the life that was being led.

Before me and so I decided to kind of take my health into my own hands and I cannot believe

the difference in me.
