That's so sweet of you to welcome me back. Here's why I've been AWOL Struggling I'm trying to come out of it, but it's hard when everything that caused me to get to that point is still present.

I know what you mean about the SFS. I never understood how a tiny 1/4 tsp of SFS could reek such havoc on a body. Especially when Heather says the SFS is just like SF food. SF food doesn't cause me such pain, so why does 1/4 tsp of SFS? I don't get it. I am currently trying to go the SFS route again...this time citrucel in am and psyllium (gulp) at night only. I also take flax in my cereal, but that is not recommended for you since you are D!

Why do you need to take Zinc? I think it is a good plan to take 1/2 dose at night to see how that goes. Yes, these medical professional who tell you to do it anyhow certainly have not experienced our pain!

I thought I was getting too much IF, actually. Yes, it does scare me because I am already in such pain...and I always associate pain with IF after reading through the EFI and First Year books. I never think I have enough of an SF base with it. Like today, I had cream of brown rice cereal with cooked blueberries and flax. That is a lot of IF first thing in the morning! In fact, breakfast seems the easiest time to get my IF in and may be not the best...but I can't figure out a better eating regiment! Work gets in the way of having cooked veggies, etc. I am very very scared of many IF foods.

Thanks for the offer of the hypno CDs! I'm sorry they did not work for you. I think my stress and my IBS are very related, so I was sort of thinking th hypno might be my last hope. Are you serious about your offer?

Have you talked to your doctor about the safety of immodium during pregnancy at 6 a day? What does he/she say? Maybe you could call a pharmacist and ask.

Yes, I got through your whole post! I am know for getting pretty long in my posts too...there is just so much to say. I am working on being more succent!
