Hello, everyone, old friends and new!
I just wanted to let you know that I have now made it 10 whole months without an attack of IBS-D!! All hail Heather, the IBS goddess!!
For you newbies, I did it by following Heather's diet, including an SFS, and taking my prescription antispasmodic every day per my doctor's orders!
For all my old friends, if you're still struggling, first ask yourself the following questions:
1. Am I still drinking alcohol?
2. Am I still drinking coffee?
3. Am I still smoking cigarettes? (Yep, that's a trigger, too.)
If you can honestly answer yes to those, that's terrific! If not, you need to go look in the mirror and decide if the tradeoff is worth it. I'm serious. I would NOT be stable if I were still drinking and/or smoking, no matter how careful I was with diet and SFS. And just think of all the other health benefits!
Okay, the holidays are coming up, which will be a challenge, but with luck, I'll make it to Jan 9, 2005, which will mark ONE YEAR no IBS!
Hugs to everyone!
