I'm not sure this posted, I always get a copy of my own messages and I didn't get this one and I've had not replies, so I am sending it again, if by chance you have all read it, my apologies. My fifth Gi doctor, who I must say out of the 5, except for the one who retired, I really like, started me on Robinol, anyone taking this for IBS-D with success. So far I am having a hard time adjusting to it, very nauseated, tired, had an attack last night.......I'm taking it twice a day and using the Librax he said when I'm cramping really bad.....anyway, he also started me on Aligyn, (think that is how it is spelled) it's a probiotic that he said he has had great success with. I am going on my second week of that, he gave me samples, but I was at wal-mart and it's expensive......anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone has tried or are taking either of these and if they have had any success. He did a zillion tests, all of which came back normal, including 6 stool tests, 14 blood tests, etc. he was looking beyong the realm of my IBS Diagnosis, since it is quite obvious by my zillion colonoscopies and history confirming it, that I have it, he was more concerned that I have been unable to gain a pound in almost a year, without eating less.....he was looking for a malabsorption problem. He did many many gluten/wheat tests all came back normal and I do not have an allergy there. I have been trying to eat gluten free products, but I see no difference. Anyway, just wanted to know about the meds. Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks
