Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: I am so frustrated!!

Hi Heather,
I am new to this site, but I have a suggestion for you that you may want to look into.. I am not an example- I am suffering like you, but have just started ... my husband though, who had IBS worse than I, has done rremarkably well with probiotics made by Garden of Life and called "Primal Defense" He has been taking them a little over a year and if he doesn't take his 4 per day in the am, he has diarrhea all evening. I tried them for a couple weeks last summer and ended up really sick- throwing up and diarrhea (I was also trying Aktins diet then and don't think it was the probiotics that made me sick, but I can't stomach them anymore. I don't do well with ANY vitamins- couldn'e even take prenatals during my pregnancies)..
Anyway, check into those "Primal Defense" by NAtures Way.

Also, we use NULEV pills instead of Donnatol (Donnatol worsens my migraines) and they might work for you? Ask your DR? They are a prescription and my sister, who is a nurse practioner, (am IBS sufferer) originally recommended them.
Just a thought.. Hang in there! I know what it is like to deal with daily pain ( I have daily migraines, fibromyalgia, thoracic outlet syndrome, and a back problem with the IBS)
Hope this may help and I hope you feel better soon!
Cynthia
