Default Re: Ttc + Ibs?

Thanks for the responses! I am so glad to finally have met someone on SK who is also an IBS "victim".

I started off with IBS-C, then it went to IBS-D (the WORST ever!) and now I alternate. I am not able to eat a lot of food. No beans or anything in a shell, red meat, raw fruit or vegetables, cut down on lactose, soda, coffee, tea, citrus juice, chips..etc...etc.. the list goes on and on.

I've taken some medicine to calm my stomach so that it doesn't produce so much acid, but it doesn't help. I think mine has a lot to do with anxiety/stress and foods that trigger an attack.

ProGreens : ProGreens It tastes HORRIBLE but it's supposed to help. It says on the bottle it's okay for pregnant women to take one serving a day.

Like you, I have also been in so much pain, I've been to the ER twice. It feels like something is about to burst inside of me. I heard on the news last night the FDA approved something for IBS-C. Maybe you could look into that.
