Hi ya'll!!

Okay, so I have in the past taken a million different things but right now I'm not really taking anything. The last two weeks have been pretty brutal, though, so I think I will definitely have a look at these more closely and see about taking some new stuff.

Right now I take:
-Immodium as needed (which is currently at least 1-2 a day)
-Bucospan as needed for pain and cramps (not very often until lately)
-Peppermint tea (a lot, a lot.. until my herbalist guy told me not to drink it anymore, which upset me. I have been 'sneaking' it lately as it is my only relief )
-Cammomile tea (drink at night usually to help me sleep and calm tummy down a little)
-I take a chewable children's vitamin as well. I couldn't take the brand name one because it had sorbitol in it, so I take just the drug store brand which doesn't have any "no no" stuff in it.

Oh! And right now I have had really bad reflux but with the D, I haven't been able to take any medication 'cause I end up in the bathroom all day long so I have just been taking tums every day at work to get me through.

In the past I took calcium chews, but they all turned out to have dairy so I shouldn't have them. I want to try more calcium, but all the pills I've seen have been big and I can't swallow large pills so I dunno what to do about that now...
I would LIKE to get back on the fiber wagon to see if it will help this time, and a probiotic. I also need to find something safe to take for nausea that won't make me too drowzy to work as I have been SUPER nauseous at work but can't take the extra strength gravol I have (regular strength doesn't help me) makes me tired. Boo.

Anywho, that's all from me right now!

Cheers!
--Steph
