Jennifer, I totally understand what you mean by saying you don't trust your stomach and the noises...that is a lot of my problem also.
Let me ask you though, I have been scared to try the acacia fiber, I do have it. How did you start off, and did you notice any reactions? I.e. did you have bloating, gas or cramping...or "d" ? Have you tried the peppermint tea also?
Sometime I feel like okay I'm stable...but really I'm not, because I'm only eating bread and rice and small portions of protein. I feel that I will be stable once I can eat a variety of things and only minorly suffer from Ibs...sometimes. Keep hope alive right?
Have you tried yoga or thought about it? I'm going to try.
I too am loosing weight like crazy...my dr. is concerned and sending me to three specialist next week. (nutritionist, gastro, and mental health for a possible eating disorder) I don't think they understand the pain and anxiety that comes with ibs...heck...that's my eating disorder! lol.
But, I do know that I have anxiety about eating, and don't eat enough...so that I have to work on.
Congrats on not having a "D" blow out...I know what a wonderful feeling of hope that is...you seem to be on the right track..
