that stinks that you cant sleep i imagine then its probably making your IBS even more annoying then usual?? well, i have kind of a strange remedy for sleeping, b/c i used to get really bad migraines and i was always unable to fall asleep to will them away. okay--you will need to go to a health store that specializes primarily in vitamins. there is something called liquid melatonin [sp??] its a solution that you take with an eye dropper under your tongue, 20 minutes before your desired bedtime. make a cup of celestial seasonings sleepytime tea and while its brewing/steeping, drop the solution under your tongue and keep it there for about 30-60 seconds, and then swallow. sip your tea and literally within those 20 minutes of ingestion, youll fall asleep! its really strange, but it works. i didnt have difficulties with insomnia and it put me out like a light so i imagine it will be just as strong for you, and the tea is a nice way to slip into extra relaxation! also, if youre familiar with bath and body works, im sure you are!! they carried a product called aromatherapy headache relief that you could rub onto your temples and on your face. the cooling of the peppermint always makes me close my eyes, so if a store is near, you should pop in and pick it up! they also had peppermint-lavender gel face masks that lay over your eyes.
i really hope that helps! i know when i dont get enough sleep, it sends my digestion into haywire and im huge and bloaty all day long! hang in there!! bye
