Re: I tried the antibiotics, too!       05/18/05 09:35 AM Edit Reply Quote badlydrawnboy Reged: 03/01/05 Posts: 111 Hello Elizabeth, I was on Xifanin (Rifaximin) and Neomycin. The doc said that this combo has a 90-95% effective rate in their research. But it's my understanding that Xifanin is the more important of the two. I just started Natural Calm (magnesium fomula) this morning. I pulled it out of my-cupboard-of-remedies-that-haven't-worked-in-the-past-but-I-still-have. We'll see how it works this time around. Perhaps I will try fiber again, but I want to check with my doc first. In the past everything except flax seed meal has caused intolerable bloating and gas, and sometimes made the constipaton worse (yes, this includes Acacia). But perhaps now, post-antibiotics, things will be different. I've been at Zelnorm 6mg 2x day and it has done NOTHING. The green apple juice is interesting. Time consuming though. I'll give it a try if these other things don't work. Someone mentioned DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice) can help constipation. Anyone have experience with this?
