Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Noisy gut and other symptoms....

Hi Mags! I was diagnosed about 15 years ago by physician who put me on dicyclomine and said no greasy, spicy food, etc. I've been to two other physicians about it since then always with the same pains and symptoms hoping there was something new to "cure" the IBS. Currently, my husband is my physician so he sees and hears what's going on with me and agrees that no tests are needed. He gently reprimands me when I dare to eat something that is a known trigger. I was going to fix beef/broc stir fry this evening for supper then realized that I wouldn't be able to eat it. We had chicken instead. Once a year we have a steer butchured and go halfsies with his family so we have a deep freeze full of beef. What in the world am I going to do with it? What a worrywort I am! My husband is in favor of me following Heather's guidelines especially when he gets to have fresh baked bread. I love the french baguette recipe in Heather's book! We both love chicken and fish but I guess I'm still having a problem giving up the beef and pork. I think that was one of the triggers this time.

It seems that I will have an attack when something is coming up...a meeting, a trip, a fun night out with my husband, etc. Could some of this be a mental thing? Maybe I get stressed about being in public? I've been home for the past two and a half years with my two babies. I don't seem to get out much
