Just wondering what probiotic you're taking? How much fiber and what kind? It seems brands can make a difference - what works for one doesn't necessarily work as well for another.

I think with the probiotics there is a huge difference. Are you buying the kind that is refrigerated live bacteria? My doctor put me on VSL#3 they ship it to you on ice packs - has 450 billion live good bacteria from many different sources. I know some out there are not nearly as potent. Also I think it takes a couple of weeks of taking them to reach their full effect and the benefits go away after 2-3 weeks once you discontinue use. Here is the website if you're interested vsl3.com

Are you on Acacia - what dose are you up to?

Many have found the hypno CDs helpful - I haven't tried them yet.

I'm really sorry you're not doing any better yet. Hang in there!
