Hello,
Last evening, I kept feeling like I was going to have a BM, but nothing happened.
I kept running to the bathroom all night and finally got to sleep around 12:30 am!
This morning I finally did have a small BM. However, I am running to the bathroom again today.
I have IBS-C and I am on 1 teaspoon of the Acacia fiber so far. I will increase this by 1/2 tsp in a few days.
What can I DO to relieve my symptoms when this happens again?
Thank you SO much for any help you can give me!!

Originally diagnosed with IBS-C in Spring, 2008. During spring to fall of 2008, had at least 10 acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs. IBS went into remission. IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.

I've had that happen to me once. Mine also had pain, did yours? What helped me was a big cup (16oz) of strong peppermint tea (two tea bags), and I just left the tea bags in as I slowly drank once it cooled enough I could handle it, so it got stronger as I drank. It took me around 20 minutes, I think. I hope this helps!

Thanks a lot, Steph!
My husband helped me figure out what happened last night and early today!
My hubby brought home dollar cheese and onion burgers Tuesday for lunch and COMMON SENSE should have told me to NOT eat one!
I did scrape off almost all the grilled onions but left the cheese on the burger!
I am finding that I CAN tolerate beef, as I had beef and rice for supper tonight and I am OK with that!
DUH!! I will NEVER do THAT again!!
