Re: Bob, let me clarify       08/13/05 11:30 AM Edit Reply Quote Johnny T. Reb Reged: 07/09/05 Posts: 987 Loc: Lake Linden, Mich in the U.P. IBS-C Beth, Ah, thanks for the clarification. I was under the impression that all other C's had no straining at all. I hadn't thought about acacia being the wrong SFS.Meanwhile I just ordered another pound of it this morning<laugh>. I have been drinking Silk soy milks for quite awhile and they have a bunch of calcium in them. I don't think the calcium is the problem. As I was telling Sand, my consti- pation problem is the stool not wanting to pass from the sigmoid into the rectum, which my GI doc said is due to the sigmoid spasming. If it would just stop, I would be golden. I don't know if it's due to diet or stress or both. I do know that the fact that it's been happening has been really bugging me, which probably sets it off. It's a vicious cycle<sigh>. I still haven't tried the hypno as Linz suggested. It sounds rather plausible. I often wonder if I were able to totally forget that I had IBS, that it would go away. Well, it's a nice thought anyway<laugh>. I do have mag citrate supplement pills that I haven't tried. Never tried the flax meal.I do use Heather's peppermint pills, but they often dissolve in my stomach, so I don't know if that ruins their effect. I'm on Prevacid too, I should tell my GI doc I need a stronger acid suppressor. I have Dr.Weil's book, my Dad sent me it, he's a really big fan of him. Thus far I've tried Triphala, Zinc Picolinate(for BPH), and the breathing exercises, they seem to help a little. Right now, I'm going to up my SFS and see how that goes. -Bob -------------------- <img src="http://www.math.mtu.edu/~rwkolkka/BritPicA.jpg"> Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
