Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Thanks for posting this, Steph!

I love hearing about what works for people

I'm not doing *too* bad right now though I am faltering a little from a nice stable period. Are you still taking a calcium supplement, Steph? I remember a while back you posted that you were taking the chews and it was helping with your D. I was taking a cal-mag supplement but I think the effects of the 2 (GI-wise) were just cancelling each other out. I recently swtiched to a just-Calcium (with D) one and I think it might be helping. Hard to say, I haven't really been very good at taking it lately...lol...

Also your advice re: having a more generally balanced healthy diet is soooo important I think. I think Heather really stresses that a lot - adding in fruits and vegetables safely etc. - but I think a lot of that also gets lost on these boards, so much so that it seems lots of people are fruit and veggie phobic! lol I know I feel a million times better, generally and IBS-wise, when I'm eating a healthier, balanced diet.

Anyway, glad to hear that you had such a good experience with your nutritionist! It's nice to hear success stories about working with professionals about IBS for a change! haha...

Take care Steph!
