we’ll always stick by you. you feel like my big sister haha xxx

[@lynsayrooney7753]

Watching these videos about you're condition makes me have hope that one day they will figure out what is wrong with me and my stomach ❤️ You're a complete inspiration to me for many many reasons 💜

[@juliesuddes4478]

I hope you get the answers that you need, it took me 20 years to get told I have colitis x

[@Imogenhorton.]

I love you queen xxxx

[@lynsayrooney7753]

@@Imogenhorton. I've been constantly vomiting and swelling and all sorts since I was 11 I'm now 24 and they still haven't figured out what's wrong with me I've bene hospitalised 32 times with dehydration since I was 11 it's not fun 💜💜

[@katebrown3952]

You’re so strong, I have endometriosis and ibs and have felt like I’m dying for 2 years. We are all angels battling life and doing so well, thank you for sharing your story xxx

[@ronnie-lynn]

Thank you for sharing! I’ve suffered from severe GERD for 3 years, I have lost my smell and taste for 2 1/2 years. So many foods cause me pain. I have sinus issues and Esophagus issues from the acid burning up right into my sinus. I vomit bile often and poop pure bile also. It Comes with so many more symptoms and issues. Its much more mild then your dealing with but boy it’s depleted my quality of life on top of chronic migraines and chronic shoulder and neck pain from a work injury. Everyday is a battle. You give me hope so thank you love 💜🙌🏻

[@emmywou8976]

So proud how you have managed with this condition that you have, I have coeliac and I cant have dairy and eggs which I find soooo hard...even witha cross contamination can set me off with bloating and massive IBS symptoms!!. Love you hun!.! Xx

[@tashadoes1211]

This makes me feel so emotional watching and listening your stories! The amount of things you went through with all those awful people that treated you so badly. Yet you still made it out the other side and became successful and made something of yourself. You should be so unbelievably proud of yourself and what you’ve achieved. Most University students could not have done what you did but you showed motivation, dedication and pure fight! I truly believe you can do anything you put your mind to!

[@caitlynwomack6350]

We have such a similar story when it comes to our journey of finding out what is wrong with our stomach. So many years of testing and being in the hospital. So many ivs and medications. My heart goes out to you. Living with gastroparesis is a silent struggle. Love you and your videos ❤️

[@millicentcox719]

Love you Mills! You’re the sweetest and most pure hearted person. I know that you are probably so nervous but it’s going to be okay. You’re amazing and your story deserves to be heard. You have a voice and what you have to say IS valuable. All my love goes out to you honey 💗

[@Imogenhorton.]

Love you so much more my angel! xxxxx

[@JKatt-im9ys]

I have the same illness Imogen. And it's so debilitating. It's like we are just barely surviving. So when I watch you, I know you are just trying to get on with it and be positive, that's why I love your videos. I was so sad when you was down with all the hate, I wish people could have more empathy, dealing with this illness is hard enough never mind narrow minded peoples comments. I'm going to D.M you insta. We are Gastroparesis Warriors. So proud of you.. stay strong..💜

[@joleenjenkins]

I have been watching you since you had about 50,000 subscribers and it's so nice watching your channel grow you deserve all the success love you

[@Ella-uq4db]

I’m so proud you can share your experience, it really helps young girls like me who have an invisible illness feel like they can get through it even if the journey feels never ending xxx

So proud of you, beautiful x

[@megan7160]

ok i dont usually comment on videos but omg i need to say this. you are. SO. So strong. i cannot fathom how much stress you mustve been under during your degree. and here i thought i was going through the hardest time of my life last year where it felt like everything was falling apart. youre so inspiring. i genuinely mean that. crazy to see you be so positive in ur videos and ive been watching u for a year or two now. youre amazing

[@veebhimani7550]

To all those people giving her a hard time and telling her to die - they need to take a hike. Telling someone they should die when they fully well know that they could have died is cruel to another level. Love you Imo your amazing and strong xx

[@Cerysevans30]

You are so inspirational to me, we are so similar in ways of our physical and mental illnesses. I still haven’t got to the bottom with what’s wrong with my stomach. I’ve been feeling really alone and almost not normal compared to everyone else lately. Im still awaiting to be seen by the right specialists and they’re saying 18 weeks😩 but im too scared to hurry them along even though I am in pain. But Imogen, the way that you are so positive and strong with everything you deal with is incredible, been watching you for a while now and thank you for making me feel like im not alone xxxxx

[@jadegreen7612]

I love your outfit and make up today, natural fluffy brows really suit your face. I would genuinely listen to you tell a story about taking your bins out, always so entertaining to watch 🦋

[@jessperry762]

I have gastroperisis which is affected by my type one diabetes. My diabetes affected my stomach nerves so much stomach doesn’t work properly because of it. It affects my sugars badly and I get so ill from it. I completely understand everything you have gone through and I appreciate how honest you are. It just shows that we are all human. Thank you for sharing and connecting so deeply with your audience xxx

[@katiecallaghan4293]

So inspiring Imogen, thank u❤. I cried throughout your story, it brought back so many memories of me when I was in school and my stomach condition. I was so so sick too. You have come thru this lockdown on top and you should b proud 🤗. I don't normally comment on videos

[@user-rc4hk1pj4m]

Oh hun, when you were describing the process of accepting your diagnosis I felt it so hard. I don’t have the same as you, but celiac disease and it’s so frustrating knowing you’ll have to live a certain way for the rest of your life so you don’t get worse. I’m sending lots of love and blessings towards you and I hope you’re doing great, please take care 💕💕

[@Chloe-dv9hf]

This is so interesting to me, i have gastroparesis and intestinal failure, I’m fed via a jejunostomy and also have a PEG to drain bile from my stomach, things are getting worse and we’re considering TPN now. Initially when i started watching you i had an NJ and NG tube (now they’re surgical, a PEG and Jejunostomy) and you’ve been such a positive influence on my confidence and approach to my health. Having grew up basically in hospital the whole time, it’s nice to have relatable people to look up to!

[@Chloe-dv9hf]

(I did DM you a few weeks ago on instagram - @lifeofpabclo) if you’d like to hear from me there!

[@Chloe-dv9hf]

another note: anybody struggling, you can do this. My DMs are open for anyone wanting to rant, i’m possible the sickest i’ve been but Im currently doing a law degree, life beyond illness is possible!

[@esmeflorence5226]

Thank you so much for sharing these story times. I have an invisible illness and your videos make me feel less alone. Your amazing, I’m so proud of you angel. I can’t wait for part 6 💗

My goodness Imogen. You've had it incredibly hard during University and being so ill. God knows how you completed it all. Gosh you're STRONG Imogen ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jasminbradley1790]

Oh Imogen! You are an utterly true, brave and beautiful soul! It sounds horrific and I am so sorry you have to live with this awful condition. Thank you for talking about it and helping other people that suffer with the same thing. You should be so proud of yourself! The lovers outweigh the haters tenfold!! 💗

[@jasminecracknell5612]

You are so brave Imogen and so so strong. I can't even imagine what you must have gone through and to remain such a positive person too. Just amazing xx

[@Selene0017]

I have gastroparesis as well, however it is due to post surgical procedure and the surgeon had told me. However, adjusting to the symptoms, to the medication, to the new diet and lifestyle after the diagnosis was a challenge and it still is. I been living with the condition for one year and is a continuing trial and error. I wish all the best to all the people struggling with gastroparesis. You are not alone.

[@emilydallas03]

I can’t imagine how horrible it must’ve been to go through and still have to deal with all this angel, you are and absolute warrior and a huge inspiration💓 also, there’s a youtuber I watch and I’m not sure if you know her already but Amy Lee Fisher talks about her struggles with gastroparesis and other chronic illnesses and I would really recommend her channel for tasing awareness of it like you are! sending so much love 💞💞

[@reviebyrnes9527]

I’m currently waiting to see a gastroenterologist to diagnose what’s wrong with my stomach and I’m so scared, I’ve been suffering for 4 months now due to the current pandemic and not being able to see anyone :,( Thank you for speaking out about your condition and being available to talk about these things with ❤️

[@jademcinerney384]

Your honestly an inspiration, I’ve just had an emergency surgery 2 weeks ago due to a bowel obstruction and I suffer from Crohn’s disease so can relate to everything your saying about hospitals and diagnosis, keep being you because you are doing amazingly ❤️

[@zoed4827]

I kinda feel bad that I'm sat here watching this in a entertainment way it's so interesting and amazing to hear your stories. I just feel guilty, they are so precious and personal. Imogen I am so sorry you had to deal and still deal with these tough times. The times at Uni you mention really touched me. I have never had any stomach condion but I was bullied heavily in high school and can connect to feeling so alone and depressed. I would like to think this has helped shaped me as the person i am today as I imagine it has you too. Love you imogen, stay beautiful and amazing ❤❤❤

[@mahtajb1330]

Ahh Imogen honestly you have been through so much, but your so strong and inspirational to many people out there! I’ve been watching your KZbin videos for years now, and I just love you as a whole your beautiful inside and out ❤️ Sending you so much love 💕

[@madeleinesvensson-m3y]

I don’t have any issues with my stumach, but I watched all the parts of this series and it was really interesting (if you can call it that?). You are doing a very nice thing opening up about this and helping people. I did have serious healthissues with my throat and that lasted for two years from the time I was 17-18 years old also spending time in the hospital. It was truly awful beeing in so much pain and beeing that young and feeling all alone! So in some sort of way I can relate to your story. Thank you for sharing once again! Sending you all of my love and best wishes! ❤️

[@kaylyncarroll6017]

I'm so happy that you've finally got a diagnosis as hard as it is! At least you know what you are treating now xxx I hope they manage to find my diagnosis soon :( x

Thankyou so much for posting about your struggle with chronic illness. It helps so so many of us and you are incredibly strong ❤️

[@kateg7298]

You're very brave to post a video about your conditions. Bless your heart. I know it's scary and stressful to get multiple MRIs. I have the same thing and it's miserable. I hope you won't be offended if I keep you in my prayers? I hope that you're feeling better soon. X

[@JuliMaria]

I had the same symptoms and multiple (!) tests over years. Nobody could tell what it was and I never got diagnosed. I found out by myself that I had candida overgrowth in my stomach so I switched my nutrition and I feel so much better, its almost gone and I can totally live with it now. I get some symptoms again sometimes but only if I'm eating too much sweets. Sorry for my bad English I'm from Germany 😅 so so much love to you, stay strong 💕

Love you so much 💗🥰 I am a musical theatre performer myself and I studied drama at uni and that was hard so I honestly don’t know how you got through uni with all that you was going through 🙈💗

I’m so sorry all of this happened to you, you don’t deserve it. Stay strong beautiful because you staying strong is giving me hope ❤️ thank you so much beautiful. I’ll always continue to support you, you are making me feel less alone and less hurt with having a stomach condition.

[@amys8906]

I swear I only just started watching and now it's finished. The time flew so fast watching today's video. I've been bed bound for 18 months. It's so frustrated, I know what's wrong with me now. Finally diagnosed Nov 2019 and the thought process you mentioned in the video made so much sense to me. I was so happy to know why I couldn't walk (I have a partially dislocated right hip and fibromyalgia) however they won't do a hip replacement because they fear that the fibro could be part of the reason my left hip replacement was unsuccessful back in 2014. So they don't want to put me through that on my right leg. So depressing but you just have to take it one day at a time. I look forward to all of your videos and avidly following this full series. *Gentle hugs* xx
