Hey all,
I'm really at a loss. I've been following all of the diet guidelines, I've been taking 1 tsp of acacia twice a day, I tried peppermint caps (they seemed to make it worse), I drink peppermint tea and water. I've been eating this way for over a week (low fat, high soluble fiber), taking acacia for about a week. The problem is that my symptoms seem exactly the same. Everytime I eat ANYTHING, I get the cramping and horrible diarrhea. I had pasta last night, lots of french bread throughout the day yesterday, some low fat soup. I had corn chex and soymilk this morning, yet I barely made it to the bathroom at work in time coming in this morning. Loperamide helps, but as soon as it wears off, symptoms are back and exactly the same. Oh, I also had my gall bladder removed June 1st, which triggered all of this starting around the start of July. Maybe thats why the peppermint oil makes it worse? I don't know - I'm at a loss and just want to bawl my eyes out at this point. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
