Re: Has Bridget gone to the doctor yet ?Brigid?

[Guest guest]

Hi Anita thanks for your concern. I have gone to my pcp and had

blood drawn and will have to fly up to see Dr. Rabkin on May 9. I

guess he is out of town until then. I just made the appointment.

Just to let you know I did not have any bowel problems prior to

this surgery. I have consistently had diarhea for five months. I have

done everything from eating no fat, no dairy to eating some fat and I

am curently on a daily dose of dairy care. I also took head of others

advice with Fiber Con. No real good results as of yet (it's been

about 3 days:(

THis is a very hard reality for me and extremely embarassing

problem to face. I wish this on NO ONE! I am praying for relief and

hope to find some with the next visit to my doctor or hopefully this

Fiber Con will allow me a couple of days relief. I am really losing

my patience.

Thanks again,

Brigid

Brigid:

Have you tried adding a good, strong dairy free acidophilus to your

supplement regimen? THe antibiotics you took for surgery may have

killed off all the " good " bacteria and you haven't been able to build

it back up.

Look for dairy free acidophilus in the refrigerated case at your local

health food store. I know Whole Foods carries them. Ethical Nutrients

is the retail arm of Metagenics and their stuff is always top-notch.

You've also tried eliminating all forms of dairy from your diet,

right?

Good luck and be well,

Sharon, 10 years and 2 days post-op
