Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: I've been taking Prodiem, lately.

Kate...thanks so much for your posts. Since March, the only beverage I drink on a regular basis is bottled water. For awhile I was drinking fitness water like Propel, but the added chemicals and ingredients bothered my stomach. Now I stick to Poland Spring. Occasionally I have been having 1/2 of rice milk with some Rice Chex. I was using soy milk but switched after some people said the rice is easier to digest. I was drinking chamomile tea but it bothered my belly--I can't do peppermint because I have GERD. Fun stuff!

I have had this full feeling in my left side for a long time--I feel discomfort sleeping on that side too. A colonoscopy and a sonogram on my ovaries didn't show anything abnormal. After your post about the yoga I went out to get a DVD to try so that I could get rid of gas pockets!

I've noticed that all this week, while taking the Equalactin, I've been more constipated and bloated than usual. I haven't been as crampy, though, which helps at work. But my belly is so full of air in the AM that I look like I am five months pregnant!

I don't cheat on the EFI diet--I eliminated all dairy, high fat, red meat...the works. I've been so discouraged that for the past 4 weeks I have felt ill w/ cramps or D. Since taking the Equalactin I've been more "bound up" but I don't know if that is normal or a good thing?

Sorry this note is so long!! I guess I just feel so confused and lost...
