Barbie, if you don't have Heather's book, let me know, and I'll type it up for you; it's not long.

Hey sis,
Thanks for being such a great sis and offering to type the recipe but I got it from AtomicRose. I couldn't find it when I looked in the recipe index. I guess you can tell I'm not computer smart....still learning how to navigate around here. Anyway now I have it. I'm not really good at making things from scratch...but I'll try. Hey, would you bake it for me since you are such a good sis???
How are you feeling today? Hope all is well.

Bev,
I have had olive oil go bad. I don't know how old it was but it definitely didn't smell right. Now I buy smaller bottles.

Oh........
Sis, I'm not well at all. I had a BIG attack this morning: EXTREME nausea, cramps, and D (of course), then nothing would come out any more; I was empty (yet my stomach looks like I'm about to deliver any minute).
Do you think it's the Benefiber? REALLY? I've tried to analyze this, looking over my food diary, and these morning attacks seem to come BEFORE I eat anything, although this morning it hit after breakfast. The only thing I have first thing in the morning is my SoyFee with Benefiber in it.
I'm embarrassed, because I've been singing praises of the Benefiber, and now I'm sick from it? Oy. It wasn't until BeagleLover offered me her supply of it, stating that she couldn't tolerate the stuff, it gave her C and bloating. While I was typing my response, I was starting to cramp up really bad -- and then the nausea hit me.
I've spent all morning sleeping it off. Wasn't able to go to the grocery store as planned (I hate grocery shopping anyway). Hubby's fed up with my being so sick lately because he thinks I take too much stuff (flax seed oil for my high cholesterol, Benefiber or Acacia, Equalactin, calcium, Jarrow probiotic, medication for blood pressure, medication for fungus, medicated eye drops for allergies, medicated nose spray for allergies -- YOWZA!). He thinks my body is rejecting it all....
I'm glad you found the recipe. I've never made it, but several here have raved about it. Sorry I can't bake it for you; I would if I could, Sis.
Goin' back to bed....

Hey Sis,
I'm so sorry you have been sick. If I was there I would give you my best sisterly care....and you would feel much better. I have a sneaky suspicion that is the Benefiber. Your not taking the tablets are you? They have sorbitol. You had similar problems with the Acacia. If I were you I would stop the Benefiber for now. Also, have you started taking any of the other medications just recently? What about the flax oil....I'm not too sure about that?? We'll figure this thing out together. BTW have you started any new vitamins or are you using any sugar-free stuff (could have that evil sorbitol)?
Just go on to bed and take it easy and feel better soon.
Give me an update later.

Bevvy, you poor thing! I'm so sorry you're feeling so bad. That's really awful and SO not fair. And you'd been doing so well for so long up until recently! Well, you just take it easy for a while. Go back to the super safe soluble fiber food list. And make sure you're getting plenty of fluids so you don't dehydrate.
PS. If you want to suck your thumb, it's okay!!
