Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I have been blessed to not have to refer to the boards in quite some time. It is interesting to see how it has grown.

How have you been? There are so many new people since '04, I had to search to find you!

I have been stable, but you know how IBS is. I have flare ups from time to time. Thanks to Heather and all you guys on the board, I have learned to cope with them. Although I eat a diet high in soluble and Insouble fiber, I am getting ready to up my dosage of Acacia to 4 (cooking) tablespoons. I already take 3 tablesoons, and will be adding on a fourth starting at 1/4 tsp. I was taking FiberChoice until I learned abiut the INULIN; not good for my IBS-C.

I am so glad you are still on the boards, it's like coming home to a friend.

I will be checking the boards more frequently now that I have left my job at the University of California San Francisco and am looking for something closer to where I live. That alone is a stress reliever!!!! I was getting up at 4 am to arrive at work by 7am and getting home at 7 pm to start the procedure all over again. It became too stressful and my tummy was not going to continue dealing with such madness.

Take care Casey and thanks for all your good advice through the years. I look forward to receiving more.
