I've been quiet lately been going through some sorta rough times. I haven't had a flare up since September after I ate some Carrot cake. I've been eating according to Heather's diet but lost more weight. I have pretty normal bowel/m lately. I guess I'm having trouble trying new foods and the foods I'm eating are not letting me gain any weight. Today the Dr. decided they want me to try a lose dose of paxil and see my Gi Dr. again to help me with some tummy problems. I'm very skeptical of Paxil, I don't feel I have anxiety nor depression. Finally my Dr. says you are having IBS..which I already new that. She says the paxil will help with seritonin to the tummy brain and calm down the anxiey of trying foods. In return it may help with the gassy tummy or bloating??? I don't get bloating and rarely gas. I have some trouble with b/m which I feel are normal. I don't go everyday. I do recall the article on seritonin and the gut brain. So in a way I new what she was talking about. I ask her about a fiber supplement and she said try paxil first and see how you do. I'm worried of a side affect DDDD. Does anyone use paxil??and if soo are you d proned and to you have a problem with it? I know we are all different, but right now I'm confused I thought I was doing better than ever, it's just the darn wieght issue. I ask her about probiotics and there was no reply. I have been considering this option over the paxil. All test are coming back clear from thryoid to hepatitis and now she is doing a sed panel. Oh another thing I ask several times about lactose intolerance and was told normal, but today a test was done and showed lactose intolerant. Go figure. I'm going to continue using Heather's diet and all of your recipes. I'm trying rice milk today.. I find that soy milk is gassing me up, even though I can do the yogurt. Hey thanks for listening, you're all the best!!
