On an empty stomach, cereal is usually the breakfast I eat. I have been stable since the beginning of December and for the holidays, I really cheated. I was more daring and added triggers like dairy and beef to my diet. No reaction. I was also on Regimint, a peppermint/caraway oil capsule. I ran out of them and last night I was a little bloaty. My intestines were doing a song and a dance inside (just a little.) This is how my body is. I will be great for a month, maybe two and then I get "D" on and off for a while and I become totally insecure. My lower half feels like it is always there ready to trikle out but it doesnt. Its the sensation. I need to be near a bathroom always. I cant pinpoint if its the capsules working with the diet or not. I have been trying the diet since I discovered this website which is great by the way. Could it be that my insides got relaxed and calmed so it can tolerate more IFs and triggers a little at a time? What do you suggest I do?
I also have been daring and started having cereal for breakfast again ( I stopped for two weeks but when I started feeling great I just recently started up) using Lactose Free milk (Im lactose intollerant) and I've been fine. But I do suffer from IBS-D and there are many days where if I know I have to go somewhere, I get really sick again, even if I've been fine for however long, and I always feel like I have to go to the bathroom, and if I knoow there won't be an easily accessible bathroom I start freaking out and come close to having an attack. I've been very insecure lately, not being able to leave my house for more than like an hour. If I'm home I am completely fine, but as soon as I start getting ready to leave, I'm back in the bathroom with terrible "D" and end up staying home. What do you all do to start feeling secure again and leave the house without fear of an attack, whether it be spasms or "D"???
