  1. We just broke up a few days ago and it feels as if every song I hear speaks to me about it. I cry whenever I listen to music now, that is if I ever stopped crying before putting it on, but it is also cathartic.
  2. I lived with undiagnosed Celiac disease for at least 4 years. I had symptoms similar to IBS and was diagnosed with that at one point. Another doctor also thought that it was my gallbladder for a while. If your friend has not been tested for Celiac, she should be. First they do a blood test, and then if that comes back with a positive result they do a biopsy of the small intestine to confirm it. The treatment is a gluten-free diet, which means no wheat, barley, rye, or oats. I felt better within 2 weeks after starting this diet. However, the diet should not be started before the disease is confirmed or it may result in a false negative on the tests. Good luck and I hope your friend finds a way to get better.
