Re: Fennel for Tonnie?       02/21/06 05:40 PM Edit Reply Quote T~N~T Reged: 01/19/06 Posts: 34 Loc: Ohio Bevvy, I don't really care for the taste of Fennel tea either. It reminds me of the medicine taste. Kind of black licorice. I tried to mix it with the peppermint tea but it didn't work very well for a good tasting tea to me. So I save it for a really bad bloat/gas day. I feel pretty "stable" now. But I have to take pep caps, calcium, immodium and fiber. I usually take the acacia in the morning but don't have it handy the rest of the day. So I take the fibercon when I don't have the acacia. It's a lot of pills to take which I don't like but it's worth it to make it thru the work day without have to make a bunch of trips to the bathroom for "x" amount of time. As far as my doc goes, she does want me to take Lotronex. But since the insurance company won't pay for it anymore she had to make an appeal for me to get it. So far I haven't heard anything back about it. I wanted to talk to her about all the supplements and OTC's I have been taking. But she just wants to wait and see if the insurance over turn the appeal. I asked he what I was supposed to do until then but she just kind of blew me off it felt like. So I ordered everything from Heather I could get my hands on and started reading the books and following the information right away. It hase been frustrating but I have felt good the last couple of weeks. I just feel like I will have to take Immodium forever and one day I may become immune. Then what? I guess I can continue to increase my fiber but that scares me a little. I don't want to take too much. Thanks for your suggestion on the SFS's. That really helps and I will check it out. Until then just keep on truckin'! -------------------- ~~~~~~~~~ T IBS-D Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
