Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Update: Answer the darn phone!!!

So I have been calling my GIs office since 9 this morning and nobody is answering!! It has this loooong message, and the last option is to just stay on the line to leave a message. Then it tries to transfer you to leave a message, fails and puts you right back at the beginning of the bloody message!!!
I am so frustrated!
My counsellor, who used to be a nurse, said that the reason pregnant women can't take it is because it can bring on labour and that it can cause severe cramping. She said if you have your period, the cramps might be really intense and awful. Oh great!

I called my GP, she wasn't in the office, the woman on the phone said that she wouldn't take the castor oil while I have my period, but that she didn't know what exactly to suggest so she said to just keep trying the GI's office so she could tell me what to do.
I don't see why I can't just take that Phosphosoda twice instead of taking the oil once, and that soda stuff once? Baah!
