Hi, I have been on Heather's diet for a couple months now and for the most part I have been doing good. Lately though I have been having lots of bloating and pain in my stomach. I have been using Citrucel and it has been working fine, but lately when I take it I bloat and get really bad stomach aches and become constipated. When the citrucel starts to work, I get cramping and have to stay very close to the bathroom. I drink lots of the teas and use a heating pad also. Now I am finding that when I eat I am also getting the stomach aches and am bloating really bad. I can bloat up to 4 pant sizes. I have been check for celiac and don't have it, so I know that it is not the wheat that is bothering me. I could really use some help here, it has gotten to where I dont want to go out anywhere, even to run errands. Thanks Gail

Hi Gail. I am sorry to hear that you are feeling yucky. I know what you mean about the bloating--there are days when one minute I am fine and then the next, I get up and am bulging out of my pants. Wearing clothes (even underwear) can sometimes be such a pain, literally.
I personally cannot tolerate the metamucil or citrucel. I take Perdiem in tablet form and have not had any bloating effects from it.
Sometimes the ab pain is so bad that I cannot even stand to be touched!
I am sorry I do not have any other useful information. But my thoughts are with you.
