Thanks for sharing your story with me. I am so happy that you have found your "cure" for IBS. For me, it's already been over three years of trying to figure things out. But only recently have I tried "Heathers" way. Don't seem to be getting anywhere yet.
I believe that stress is a big trigger for me and, unfortunatly, I have major generalized anxiety disorder. I'm talking big time! I've recently returned to church as I believe that only with God do I have a fighting chance with this hideous IBS.
I am curious as to why you cut out bread. Even the White breads? Have you tried Gluten Free breads? Also, fat free chips and low fat cereals are suppose to be okay too (KIX, rice chex,etc.)
Thanks for sharing. I just wish things that work for one person would work for another. If I tried the Stevia Plus it could do nothing for me. Or worse, the FOS could actually make me more symptomatic. This IBS has no rhyme or reason. No solution that works universally.
