Are you new to the boards? Welcome!

You didn't say anything about yourself. Have you been diagnosed with IBS? How long? Are you following the EFI program?

Equalactin and Acacia aren't drugs. They're soluble fiber supplements. Equalactin is available over the counter, but it's hard to find; most drugs stores will order it for you. Acacia is available from Heather. Check out the web site above.

Are you taking a supplement now? How much? If you're not, or if the supplement you're on isn't working for you, you might consider Heather's acacia. It's great stuff.

You have diarrhea every night? Just at night? Not after breakfast or lunch? And you have nausea too? Have you tried Immodium for the diarrhea? What about something like Lomotil? It works for the diarrhea -- not cramps, but you apparently don't have cramps?

I don't know what to recommend for the nausea. But you say it goes away after the diarrhea? If it's only occasional diarrhea, I'd suggest trying Immodium. But if you're getting it every night, I'd take a long hard look at what you're eating.

Hope this helps.

Bev
