Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Cejay - For the pain my Dr gave me a low dosage of amitriptyline. I tried it for 2 months, but it did not help me. As far as the constipation - I took a full dosage of Miralax for 2 months, then very slowly, reduced the dosage over a three month period until I was off of it completely on a nightly basis. I only take it occasionally now when I need it, and not a full dosage. I eat lots of IF buffering it with SF, and drink a smoothie every night with lots of fruit in it. As I said before, the pain is back full force for the past 2 weeks. This I believe is all stress!
The Hypno tapes do work, but as Marilyn said, sometimes it takes listening to them several times. Please see her replies to other post in the Hypnosis forum. She explains this very throughly.
Hang in there - There will be light at the end of the tunnel. Where in Georgia do you live? Norcross is a suburb of Atlanta.
I haven't posted any questions because others seem to ask the questions that I have before I think of them. Because of this people on the boards do not know me, but I want everyone to know that because of your questions & replies I have the strength to go on everyday. For this I am grateful.
I am here for anyone who needs my support.
Cejay, my prayers are with you, and my heart aches for your pain (mental). COPD is heart wrenching. If I can help, I will.
