Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone could help me explain or find tricks to solve the pain on my lower left side. It is always there, sometimes I am able to ignore and sometimes not. I am taking zelnorm, benefiber, and an anti-spasmatic. I have spoken about it with my GI, so i know what it is, but have no idea how to solve it or if it will ever go away. does anyone else experience this? should i cut back on the benefiber maybe? I have also been on a EFI diet for almost 2 months now and things are not really improving. i keep feeling like i am doing something wrong. thanks, you have all already been so helpful,

Laura

What does your GI say it is?

i used to get this and the way it seemed to go away was to up my fiber as you have done and drink tons of water to make sure nothing gets too dry, l-glutamine also seems to helop me a bit

he says that its the lower intestine spasing. the anti-spasmatic should take care of it, but it doesn't. Sometimes i worry too about taking too much benefiber.
