Hi John! I have not tried fibercon, so I won't give you any advice in that department. As a runner, I will say that when you are feeling well (and you will) take full advantage and run, lift weights. Science and experience tells us that exercise fixes many problems (mood, digestion, etc). And when you're not feeling well, go out for a walk - relax. Do something that will get your body moving, gently. Hitting the books is not going to relieve your pain (it will worsen), and if your pain is like mine, you won't get the work done any way. You're better off taking a break and not even thinking about your school work and whether it will get done in time. It will make your poor intestines cringe just thinking about it! That clamping feeling is a killer! I'm sure you know all this. As for coffee, I can't tolerate even small amounts. Even a hot chocolate on a sick day is terrible for me, but I never drank coffee before I got to college. If your body isn't reacting adversely to it then don't stress over it. Actually don't stress over it whatever. If you think it is an unhealthy habit, then gradually lower your "doses". See how that feels. So, get lots of rest, and take care! Trust me - you'll get more done and enjoy the process more. I'm a junior undergrad, by the way. I can empathize with you. Good luck with finals period (That goes for all the student posters!) and I'm glad you posted. Welcome. I'm sure you'll get lots of advice on fibercon and maybe some specific reasons caffeine is a trigger food for most people ('cause it is, I hear).
