Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: I wish I could find stuff to snack on....

YES!!! The cds really help.I find that I think less and less about IBS and my life has changed sooooo much.I've eaten things lately that I haven't eaten in soooo long!

I just came back from the docs because I've been having chest pains and headaches and she is referring me to an IBS doc.I don't know if she'll be able to help butit's a try.
My doc was quite interested in how the cds have helped cause I was such a mess after my gallbladder surgery in Feb,
I battled drug withdrawls from some pretty harsh narcotics and my IBS went through the roof!
I was at the end of my rope, I had no hope left I thought I'd be better off dead.I ordered the cds with my last hope and I seriously doubted they would help.
About day sixteen I was listening to the program and I had this incredible feeling wash over me .I finally felt hopeful again.I knew I was going to beat this and get better.It compares to that feeling you get when you walk into a really old church.A feeling of awe washes over you.A feeling of peace and understanding. I'll never forget that feeling that day.
You must try them.They have changed my life.

As far as snacks...Gosh it's so tough.I snacked on pretzels alot and still do but yes they get really old fast.Now I eat alot of fresh white bread.I can't do peanutbutter but I love pb and banana sandwiches.I still try every once in a while much to my tummys dislike but...I'll keep thinking about safe snacks for ya.
HTH much love to ya Sheila!
