Re: What to do for the pain then       02/01/05 05:58 AM Edit Reply Quote Debs Reged: 12/01/04 Posts: 25 Loc: England Hi Beth, Sorry you are having a bad time of things at the moment. I am a C but over the last few weeks have been A. I was prescribed some antispadmodic (not sure if spelt right) and yes they do give me C. I used them until the pain had gone and then stopped taking them and yes I was uncomfortable for a few days until i started having my bowel movements and then I was fine. (I'd rather be uncomfortable than in pain) (But yet again I would like neither). Now i only take my tablets when I know I am going out for a meal and know that this will stress me and cause me to have horrible cramps and bloating. I have spoken with my doctor about this and he said it was fine for me to do this. this way I am in control not the IBS. While taking the tablets I started also drinking a lot of peppermint tea and also drinking a lot of boiled water. I generally drink 3 litres or more of water per day now and I do feel fine. I know when I have not drunk enough water because I end up going towards C. Unfortunatley as far as i am aware all of these kinds of tablets don't help us c's in the fact they make us worse, but they do target the pain. If I were you i would take the tablets if they are working for the pain and drink plenty of peppermint tea if you are able to and lots of warm water. Good luck let us know if anything works for you.
