Thanks Bevvy: Yes, I had the colonoscopy when they kept me in the hospital for a couple of days, running all the tests and couldn't diagnose it there. After getting an app't with a GI 2 mos later, he diagnosed it immediately. But never advised me anything other than taking the Bentyl, "until you feel you no longer need it". So that's what I did. Kept eating and drinking my awesome Cappuccino's Grande with 2 shots of expresso, on an almost daily basis, besides my 3 regular cups of coffee just to get me out of the house!!! Because of acid reflux, I started to cut back on the coffee, but have continued until this last episode, I'm Coffee-Free for 4 days now! I've been drinking coffee since I was 5 years old. Along with spicy hot food and alcohol. What a diet! I am having such withdrawls..headaches, grouchiness, craving....etc. I'm a true Mexican that cooks and eats Jalapeno peppers with all my meals. But the pain won this time. I'm relinquishing control to Heather's Diet. I've been drinking peppermint tea, eating rice, flour tortillas, avocados and potatoes. I'm starving and craving, but for the first time, this week, no "D"! Yeah! Now I will deal with the panic attacks. I think the meds contribute to it myself. The bottle says "may cause dizziness" and I think that's what gives me the panic attacks, the dizziness. This is a small town, and I do know where all the toilets in this town are. So hopefully I won't have to give up my job. Next week I'm going to cook something from the book, maybe with a little Mexican flavor!! Goodbye Hot Sauce! Thanks to everyone for your support! You are all my new "girlfriends"!!
