Felt better for a couple of days! Yay! But why?       01/08/05 11:33 AM Edit Reply Quote Judithg Reged: 07/14/03 Posts: 157 Loc: California This is confusing. I started a modified version of the diet a week ago as an experiment. Basically I cut out sugar and many carbs (while still keeping soluble fiber in via other foods). Unfortunately I also ended up having to take a megadose of antibiotics on Monday due to some dental work. A day later, I felt 100% better. Felt good for 2 full days and part of another one. No D, no cramps, no gas. First time in many months. My husband and I celebrated! Then the symptoms started to slowly return. I'm not as bad as I was prior to this week, but I'm heading in that direction. It seems to me that it may have been the antibiotics that helped. Note: I haven't gotten a definitive IBS diagnosis as yet. Still waiting on one more set of tests. Those tests should show if I have a bacterial infection of some kind. Curious if anyone has any thoughts on why the brief improvement. Hope it happens again!! It was great to feel normal again! Judith Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
