Constipation definitely contributes to my feeling tired and crabby. If I remember correctly from Biology class, we all need at least 4 hours of unbroken sleep in order to get into deep REM sleep which is the kind we really need. When I sleep 7 hours, but they're in short spurts - say 2 hr., 3 hr and 2 hr - I haven't had a good night's sleep and I'm really tired the next day.

All I can suggest is to try to eat as much IF as you can handle without aggravating your colon. And try fennel tea; Heather's seems to be pretty good. I can get some locally, but I think it takes 2 cups of it to get the same effect as one cup of Heather's tea. If you have a local source for fennel tea, try some.

Best wishes -
