Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I just now had a chance to read everyone's replies. I was too busy last week because I was scrambling to pack for my vacation. Right now I'm in California visiting my boyfriend.

You guys are just great and all of your suggestions are terrific! I am going to check out the Bio-K dairy-free bottles at Wholefoods (there's one nearby) as well as the solaray multidophilus and acidophilus.

I have finished the two anti-fungal pills (taken orally) that I was given. I'm not sure if the infection is totally gone or not. My Canadian doctor was rather unhelpful and said there was nothing else she could suggest if the pills had not worked. However, since I am in the U.S. right now, I may go see a doctor here. I think American medicine is more advanced than Canadian medicine. For example, new treatments are always available in the U.S. before Canada.

I spoke to an American pharmacist today and she told me there are many other options to treat my infection outside of the two pills my doctor gave me.

By the way, does anyone know of a good naturopath in the Palo Alto / San Jose area? I might try that route too.

Thank you again!

Belinda
