Re: IBS-d and water consumption       04/21/03 01:14 PM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA Hi - I've had that "unstable" feeling you're talking about after an attack. And drinking plain water doesn't usually set well with me in that position. But, very strong hot peppermint tea is very soothing and does set well. So does drinking a diluted soluble fiber supplement - maybe half the dose you normally would take. I'll use Citrucel or Metamucil (which doesn't give me bloating) and let it thicken up just a bit, so it's not as thin as water. That seems to settle me down and still gives me the water I need.
