Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Doing alot of reading

I was on the medicine Zelnorm for 12 weeks and that didn't seem to do much but produce tons and I mean tons of gas. On top of the fact I was on a high fiber diet to try to keep things as close to regular as could be. I did take one gas-x pill and while it did relieve the bloating/gassy feeling but then I didn't take anymore because I thought it would have interferred with the Zelnorm in some way. (although I'm sure it didn't, I think that was my mind playing tricks on me). I am now off the Zelnorm but am still on a high fiber diet. The gassiness isn't as bad anymore but I am physically bloated 100%. As the day wears on and I put more food into me. I take one dose of Citrucel each afternoon and have a bowl of very high fiber cereal in between supper and bedtime. Along with my normal food during the day. I never did try enzymes to break down my foods- Can you give me a name of one that you could recommend from personal experience...Thanks for replying. It's comforting to know I'm not the only person with this very frustrating problem...
