Oh, Sharon. You poor dear. You have a really hard time with that tempermental little belly of yours!
I remember when you first told me that your Doc wanted you to get your fiber intake up to 50-60gms per day I almost fell out of my chair. I still do a "deer in the headlights" when I read that! That STILL does not sound right to me! What kind of fiber supplements are you taking? You just HAVE to be taking some kind of supplements, right? Not sure how in the world you could get that much fiber from food alone. You would be eating ALL day! Maybe it's the fiber supplements?? If you are having 7 BMs before lunch, no wonder your belly aches!! Your poor intestines are working soooo hard! After they are finally empty, they are still stimulated with all that fiber, and they have nothing to push against, so they just spasm...empty. Whew!
Are you vegetarian? Just wondering since you said you don't eat meat. Meat would probably slow you down a bit. That MAY help. How much water are you drinking?
