That is very IF! Especially first thing on an empty tummy. Yikes. This may be contributing to your pain, cramps, and bloating. Plus, it contains artificial sweetener.
I take beano, but it doesn't seem to help me, like it has the others. I hope it helps you, Abi.
I don't currently use an SFS. I've tried lots of them, but they all have caused me gas and bloating. I don't know if I should keep trying or not. I think I've tried almost all of them except Acacia. I'm scared to try anything new. None, I mean none, have been more helpful than hurtful. I would think someone with chronic constipation would need to take a supplement....don't you?
I think it's perfectly normal to still be feeling the effects of the barium. It takes a while to get out of your system....but every day, it gets better.
Didn't you have a sitz marker test too? How did that come out?
