I'm sorry that what Casey said is really not what you wanted to hear, but I have been unstable since August and there IS NO QUICK FIX......I have tried all of it!
All of the fads, all of the diets.....I am a VERY impatient person and I wanted to be stable IMMEDIATELY! Everything I tried just made it that much worse. The Atkins diet, probiotics, all kinds of supplements: slippery elm, marshmallow, digestive enzymes, Primal Defense, Intestinal Soothe and Build....all of it!
Once I stopped taking all of the supplements and crap I started to see immediate results. I could at least eat without getting nauseous. I began eating safely according the heather's diet and I take Citrucel three times a day (have been since 2003)....but, I was still having attacks. It was very frustrating......but, now I'm finally beginning to stabilize, again. I was having attacks every single day and it's been a week and I have not had an attack. I haven't been 100% all week, but I haven't been really sick like I usually am. I know that it's going to take alot more time on this diet because my diet is still mostly SF. Every time I start to incorporate IF, I fall off the wagon. So, it's going to take a long time for me to stabilize completely. Last time this happened, it took me a year to stabilize....It was a rough road and when I got there, too much chocolate and too much stress taking on two jobs put me here, again!! I really didn't think I would ever get sick again but I did. It sucks, but stick with it and you WILL get better! Michelle
