Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Thank you so much for your help. I was actually thinking the same thing about trying all treatment. The base drs sent me to Urgent care Weds because they knew they wouldn't be able to see me (they suck) and the dr there ordered a stool sample to check for parasites. My drs nurse tried to get the results from it on Thure, but they hadn't processed them yet. She said she would try her hardest to check up on them. My only concern with IBS, is that I don't seem to have much of a reaction to the same kind of foods as IBS-sufferers do (with the exception of milk). Also, the diet to eat when you are having a bad episode absolutly has not worked on me. I have not been able to eat anything for almost a week now. I have never been so anxious to get to a doc as I am now. Today alone, I've 6-7 episodes of D. I am trying so hard to keep hydrated through all of this. I got dehydrated from this ONCE and that was all I needed to convince me to make sure to always drink my water. I am not in as much pain, because when I was at the Urgent Care place, they gave me Dicyclomine to stop most of the cramps. I have been taking 4 of them a day - which is the most I have ever had to take! So, I guess there is a silver lining...other than losing lots of weight. Anyway...I babble...the meds...thank you for your opinions. Hopefully this new doc will be better.
