Re: toxins- Debra V.

I believe this too! And I wanted to ask everyone here if this has

happened to you - I have had some flare type pain all week. Then

yesterday, or last night I had an ibs episode where I had to 'go' and

spent two hours 'going.' Last night my body felt great! I had taken a

naproxen earlier that day but I often wonder that 'eliminating my

toxins' helps the flare lessen. This morning I'm still in pain but a

lot less intensity from 24 hours ago.

I sometimes wonder if the flareups are similar in nature to

migraines. When I have migraines, nothing seems to digest, and food

just churns around and around in my stomach. At the end of the

migraine, I always have an episode similar to what you described.

I wonder if they'll eventually find out if flares have the same

mechanism in the brain as migraines. Not that flares are migraines;

just that they work kind of the same way for some people.
