I was just signing my name on the eating board to a post I wrote, and I started to write, yes I've tried hypnosis becasue I knew someone would tell me to try it (I've done the 100 days twice now). But then I kept listing everything I'd tried over the years for IBS I can't believe how much there is. Now I'm thinking how much money I'd have saved if I hadn't had IBS and bought all this stuff! A few of these things I still do/use others were one shot trials. no order, just free association...
i've tried:
hypnosis,
heather's diet,
yoga,
psychotherapy,
juicing,
acupuncture,
accacia,
metamucil,
citrucel,
benefiber,
peppermint caps
altoids,
hyosciamine,
bentyl,
fennel,
ginger,
probiotics,
journaling,
pepto,
mylanta,
gas-x,
beano,
xanax,
dgl licorice,
gluten free,
wheat free 3 years,
dairy free 15 years,
no raw food 10 years,
veganism 1 year,
"macdougal diet" which was fat-free veganism that same year,
vegetarianism 8 years but no more,
aloe juice,
meditation,
colostrum,
chinese herbs,
ginseng,
buspar,
zoloft,
desepramine,
digestive advantage,
pot,
jogging,
tai chi,
feldenkrais method,
Alexander technique
Rosen method
biofeedback
and burning moxa in my navel! (chinese medicine technique you burn this fibrous stuff and it warms you up, it doesn't burn the skin)
and probably a few more that I'm not remembering!!!
Have I missed any major "cures"???
