Ragtop summed it up very well.
I'm two years into this, and am better than I was when it first started. I'm never symptom-free and I occasionally have flares, but I don't consider it a disability by any stretch of the imagination. An annoyance, yes.
Anxiety and stress makes my symptoms 10 times worse. Doing whatever you can to help with that will go a long way in how you feel. I still haven't figured out how to deal with the stress, but at least my initial anxiety when I developed the condition has subsided, and I'm sure that's a big part of my improvement.
And do watch your diet. Try to cut back on sugar and processed food as you can. Neither does your body any good, and if you have "silent" glucose issues, they could be adding insult to injury.
