First of all, I am sorry that you are feeling so bad and haven't had any significant improvement in the way you feel, despite your efforts. I know how incredibly frustrating IBS can be and have felt "rock bottom" many times myself.
To be fair, though, Heather has never claimed to be able to cure anyone, and I don't believe there are any false promises in any of her advice. I, for one, have had one of the best months of my life since finding Heather's books and this website. There is NO cure for IBS, and I think all of us are (painfully...pun intended) aware of this. There are only ways to help reduce the discomfort, severity and longevity of our episodes. Are you 100% sure that you have nothing else going on besides IBS? No allergies, intolerances, etc...? You told us what you don't eat, but what DO you eat? Are you posting back here because you want more advice and support, or do you just need a place to vent your frustration?
