Thanks Sinead. Yeah, I'm on Paxil(12.5 mg dose) right now,
but I just started it on July 27. So maybe it will start
helping me later, hopefully sooner. -Bob

How are you doing with the diet BoK? How long have you been doing it? Like I said the reason for this post was to encourage people not to lose hope. Hope it works for you.

Sinead, I started Heather's diet about the beginning of July.
My tummy seems to have calmed down a lot, unfortunately it
hasn't done anything for my BM's yet which are not large enough volume wise, and very uncomfortable bordering on
painful<sigh>. However, I think that's all due to the spasms
which I can't seem to get to stop. Maybe my SSRI(Paxil) will kick in and benefit me, like yours did for you.
Thanks again. -Bob

I'm glad to hear this success story and others! It really does help. It gets discouraging fast when you want things to be better...NOW!

I was the same way for about a year as well. I did everything I was supposed to do. Up until just recently, I have found out that I can eat red meat and salad and some other things on a regular basis. I know what I can eat without a problem and what to take caution with. I am still on the SFS, it really helps me. But I am dairy-free, which I noticed was my main problem and I don't eat brocholi or coliflower (spelled that wrong) ever! 
I seem to have been pretty stable for a while now  . Glad you are feeling better!

Hi Cailin
Your post couldnt have come at a better time for me. I just came on here to be cheered up because I've started to feel really depressed with my IBS I havent been out in days  I've been taking the SFs for almost a week now and have realised that one before bed and one before lunch seems to make things better for me. It's stopped the D in the morning but I still feel upset first thing it takes me a while before I feel I can eat.
Is this normal?
Already I feel sick of SF foods Ive been eating toast for brekkie, pasta for lunch and meat with mash potato and veg for tea. my only luxury is a couple of rich tea biscuits they are just keeping me sane. 
How long will it take for my tummy to settle in the mornings? It's a huge problem as I cant go out in the mornings now I wont go out if I havent eaten as I get dizzy.
Any advice appreciated.
Congrats on being stable that really is great and reassuring to us still sick!
Oh also, about the Anti D's what benefits did they give you? Did you get side effects?? How long did you take them for??
Thanks
Niki

Is this normal? I am not good first thing in the morning either and usually the only things I can stomach first thing are Heather's banana bread from the book or A cinnamon & raisin bagel. I used to be able to have cereal and choc soy milk but I am a little nauseous now and even bread has no appeal to me first thing. Lots of people on here (Casey for one) have a pre-breakfast of something that is safe to them, I often eat a ricecake first thing just to get my body going

My constant dull pain went away! No side effects that I could identify. I took them from September to January
Thanks No problem, glad to help!
