ok, it took the boy over a week to call, but he did, and we're going out for a drink tomorrow. a real live date. totally bizarre.
but i know. a drink. real great for ibs. i had one beer last week, on a stomach of SF, and felt mostly fine, so i'm thinking this'll be ok. and simpler than, as an ibs vegetarian, finding a restaurant. i'm eating super-safe today and tomorrow to make the drink as safe as possible, and i did my research and know to stick to vodka drinks with juice or 7up. (i'm okay with the bubbles. but dang i miss amaretto sours.)
i take my SFS (psyllium caps) in the morning - should i take a couple more before heading out, in addition to having a stomach full of sf dinner? i know that upping the SFS dose can cause gas, but maybe that won't kick in till the next morning?
also, folks talk about preventative immodium a lot - what are your thoughts on that versus donnatol? my donnatol side effects aren't too bad, but i think the alcohol might exacerbate them, and i don't want to be doped.
