I'm FINALLY BACK TO NORMAL!!! (Was Re: Second Opinion - Impressive)

[Guest guest]

Micky!!

YAY!! I'm so THRILLED you're doing better! =)

I saw a gastroenterologist on Friday, & he concurs that my troubles

are/were probably an exacerbation of my IBS triggered by mild food

poisoning. He started me on a drug called Symax-SR 1 or 2 twicw a day,

& I have felt the difference IMMEDIATELY! I took no immodium the

night before or day of my visit (in case he insisted on repeating the

stool tests), & started the new medicine ASAP.. and I HAVE NOT HAD

DIARRHEA SINCE!!! My BMs are still soft, but very controllable.. it

was the spasms in my colon that caused the uncontrollable part. I am

back to NORMAL!!!! My advice to anyone having frequent loose stools

along with " rolling " intestinal cramping independant of diet, see a

gastroenterologist to be checked for IBS.. I feel so free!!!

Hugs,

Liane =D
