I truly do understand the thoughts that some type of surgery has got to be better than the constant suffering. I had decided to go to our local surgeon to discuss what surgical options were available to me. BUT somehow I came across this website and after slow deliberate changes, (safe foods, meds, sfs, immodium, teas etc)things began to settle down. I don't mean instantly but the pain really let up fast. The D and spasms took longer and I had a noticeable difference when I began the Acacia and taking Immodium every day. After reading a gazillion posts around here I know that this will always be a back and forth state. It is awful when the "it's only IBS" gets thrown at you. Nobody can understand what it's like to be totally unpredictable from day to day with this problem. Please keep us informed how you are doing.
