I had a bowl of cream of rice with a peeled chopped pear. It was the darn pear that got me. I know that I cannot eat pears, but it had been such a long time that it had slipped my mind. I am still suffering, and it is 10:16pm here.
This afternoon I had two peppermint caps, and Heather is right, it really does take about an hour to feel effect from them. For me the effect is short lived. I laid on a heating pad and watched a little tv.
I live in an extremely rural area, it is a 45 min. drive to get to a decent grocery store, forget the health food store. My point being, I think the fennel tea would be good for both of us. I had some fennel seeds from the spice section, crushed them as best I could with a rolling pen, put them in a diffuser with a pep mint tea bag and made the tea. I havent had long enough to know if it is going to help with the bloating. If it does help I guess I will order the tea from Heather.
I am feeling better now than earlier today, the gas is driving me crazy. Took some equalactin, it did slow down my visits to the bathroom. I dont know, the hot bath feels so good doesnt it? When I had a uterus, I had one good week a month. The pms ruled me and everyone around me. It was horrible. The bloating sure will make you wish you had never picked up a fork. I am not good to remember my fiber supplement, when I drink it regularly, I do have less gas, and bloating too.
Hope you are doing better too, thanks for the kind words. gayla
