A question about stability

Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

So after my ranting the other day - and totally not being able to eat ANYTHING yesterday, not even from the "what to eat when you can't eat anything" list - I'm kind of curious.

Could my problems with not feeling better at all yet, after 7 weeks on the diet, be a combination of not being on a high enough SFS dosage yet, and just plain not eating enough?

I have a feeling the answer is "yes", but I just need some encouragement, I guess... I feel like I've lost all hope, and I really want to find some of that again. I've been coasting on the SFS for the past few weeks, but I'm going to increase today. I'm so tired of feeling lousy. I've barely eaten for the past 2 weeks because I just CANNOT eat when my insides are gurgling and cramping. I've lost so much weight that my boyfriend is genuinely afraid for me. I spent a lot of yesterday asleep, because I didn't even have the energy to sit at the computer. My doctor's appointment isn't until Aug. 2, and in the meantime, I'm so miserable that I'm starting to think that jumping off a bridge isn't such a bad idea.

By the way, I did finally get an appointment with a therapist - I go this Monday morning. I'm still not convinced they can really do anything to help me, but I'm at a point where I'll try ANYTHING that I can afford. I don't think I've ever been so low.
