alright here are som pointers... First of all do not strat taking 10 mg right off the bat, that is alot for your body to get used to at once. I did 5-7 days at a half pill (5mg) and the nausea was minimal.
I take mine in the morning, that is how my doc said to take it, but apparently it doesn't matter when you take it as long as its a the same ish time each day.
Second, yes eating SF all week is an ok plan and take the immodium and pepto if you have to, the yucky feelings will start to go away aftyer a bout a week, and by 2 weeks you should be good to go and starting to feel a bit of an ease up on the anxiety.
Give it time and just push throught it, think of all the times you felt horrible with ibs, if you can brave that for so long, you can brave a few days of icky medicine feeling, at least knowing that it will go away soon. Hope that helps.
