Has anyone tried Heather's peppermint capsules? If so do you find they provide fast relief? I have major stomach spasms that attack while I'm at work.

I haven't tried Heather's peppermint capsules specifically, but I can definitely vouch for the effectiveness of peppermint as an antispasmodic - any time I've had cramping, cups of strong hot peppermint tea have calmed it right down. I'd recommend it.

I really think they are the largest reason why I am as close to stable as I am (I was stable until I got this infection and went on bactrim) They help so much with the spasms, and just plain make me feel better, I drink peppermint tea as well, but I could never drink it in enough quantity to make up for the capsules too!
