hi- I've been scanning through the forums and can't seem to find an answer to my issue, so I figured I'd just post (first time!).
I've had IBS-D for ~8 years, in the last 6 months it's been fairly out of control. I drive my mom (82) and the control issue is a concern (are we near a bathroom?) I've been on a severely restricted low residue diet (white bread, saltines, pasta, rice, potatoes) for about a month and even that makes me gassy and nauseous. My GI dr did another round of tests for bacteria (negative) and wanted to put me on Questran- I'm super reactive to meds and feared for severe constipation...but that still isn't answering the nausea question. the doc prefers I not take as many Imodium as I was taking (2 every other day).
Wondering if anyone has any ideas? I miss food! I'm taking the peppermint caps (having reflux at night- when I take my Prilosec, go figure) and using the peppermint and fennel tea. Nothing tastes the same, from the teas to pretzels. I'm lost.
Any ideas are appreciated.
IBS-D, migraine, arthritis

Do you eat like said on this forum? No diary for example? It's easier to react if we know if you eat the EFI way. I have had much help by de hypnotic cd's for the stressrelated part of the D. Ibs.

Hi- I have been following the eating plan on the website and using the Tummy fiber and teas for about 5 years. Haven't had *anything* in the RED for about a year now. I do use the hypnosis cds as well, although not as often as I would like. I have had four colonoscopies and a sigmoidoscopy along with CT scans, nothing exciting found. Doc recently put me on new probiotics to try and curb the extreme D, no real change. When I stopped them, however, I seemed to change to C. Which is working out better for me! I still don't understand the nausea with food, which doc has no answer for.

That's a pitty that you allready eat this way. Did something change the past few years? Did you have benefits by the food and hypnoses or nothing at all? I feel changes if I am stressed out or don't eat the way I should..
