My IBS-D has been somewhat stable for awhile now (with the help of Immodium when I feel an attack coming on). I started my vacation this weekend (yeah!) and have been staying up late, sleeping late, and eating at odd times--breafast at noon, lunch at 5:00, dinner at 9 PM. Gee, could this have triggered my latest bout of D? Does anyone else have this problem if you don't sleep enough hours or you eat at irregular times?
Several months ago, before this latest episode, I was battling the D and losing weight to the point where people thought I was anorexic. I would stop eating at those times, and then start the bland diet. Now I just forge ahead and keep eating with the help of Immodium. I'm slowly gaining back the weight.
However, I've been having irregular heartbeats and wonder if this could be caused by a lack of nutrients. I've had tests done on my heart and nothing is conclusive for a heart problem. Any thoughts?
You guys are great. Happy 4th!!!
