I have type 1 diabetes celiac disease acid reflux disease and am lactose intolerance.I'm not looking for people with 1 or 2 of these problems,i'm looking for a person for all of these problems like me because I feel very alone,my mom tells me there are other people like me but I have never met anyone with all of these problems at the same time.

I'm not feeling sorry for myself,i've actually learned to deal with all of these diseases including the fact that I have social anxiety disorder and am claustrophobic,it doesn't bother me any more.I'm just curious as to who else out there is like me.I am sorry for everyone and my heart goes out to everyone who has even worse problems.

Girl some people dide today.........cheer up and just thank God that you are still here. Stop looking at the glass as half empty. I just came from a funeral today, a guy stood up for his sister and the guy came back and blew his brains out. Thank God he is letting you live even with all the things that you say are wrong with you. Talk about what's right with you. You are on the net for one......... you know how many people are going to bed hungry tonight. Oh by the way, that guy that died, his mom died having him so he never met his mother, so at least you have your mom right there for you. So try to think of something each day to be thankful for instead of something to complain about. I'm sure you could be enjoying your life more. I look at life like this, make the most of it, you will be dead waaaaaaaay longer than you was ever alive. There is a reason God still has you here.............And it's people with things out there with no cure for, no treatment, nothing. Just cheer up and enjoy your life.........

I don't have those diseases but I do have 4 other ones MS, Crohns, Interstitial Cystitis, and Endometriosis. It all sucks I know. It's easy for people to say things could be worse or look on the bright side. It's not fair and you are allowed to be mad and sad and feel like no one understands. It takes a lot of time to begin to be OK with everything you have to deal with. That's the best advice I can give. Let time help heal.

I'm not sure you have come to the right place with this question.
I don't have any of those diseases, but I know what they are, and I know how they can really affect your daily life.
Why not ask your doctors about support groups? You might also do a Yahoo search under "GROUPS" .... as there are many groups on the categories of diseases. And then join all of those that apply to you... and you may then find somebody on there who has all of those.
But... there ARE worse problems than the ones you have.

I know several with all of these problems....Listen girl, not to make light of your woes...but you could have it MUCH worse. I also know many people who are dying from diseases much worse than yours. Count your blessings!! Your problems can be controlled.

Your Doctor could probably help you with these issues. One of the first things I would do is just tell him/her that you are worried that you're all alone out there.

My gf has type 1 diabetes and she doesn't go through life hating herself for it because there's nothing she can do about it. It's part of who you are and you can't change it. good luck
