No GB since 2004. Peppermint doesn't cause any problems, however, still have issues w/pasta sometimes. Pizza is always out of the question ( IBS AND no GB...disaster! ) but certain IBS "safe" things still give me trouble which I then attribute to the no GB. Anyway, I too, can live on Altoids. Funny how everyone is so different.

I used altoids for a while because they helped but then one day at a restaurant I sucked on one of those big mints they give you at the restaurants and it helped me so much that I went out and bought a big bag they are fantastic for cramps!!
