Heather's seemed to need to take lots of drugs in order to get stable

What do you mean by this? I don't think this is the case. She does list several different meds that may or may not work for people. But she also lists lots of lifestyle changes and alternative meds and therapies. What she has given us with her diet info is a guideline to follow that has to be tweaked and adjusted to fit each of our bodies.

The diet, on it's own, w/o any other lifestyle changes generally isn't enough for anyone. Hypnotherapy is wonderful addition! I'd give that a try if you haven't already.

As for Imodium, I think that you do build up a tolerance to it after a while. At least I did. I find that regular doses of Acacia fiber are more effective and much less uncomfortable than taking Imodium all the time. With Imodium I can end up w/ C, gas, bloating if I'm not careful. It doesn't happen very often, but it can on occasion.
