Re: the end of D!!!!!!       02/25/04 04:21 PM Edit Reply Quote LauraS Reged: 01/26/04 Posts: 75 I'm so glad you found something that works! I had severe D for about 10 years (no exagerration) with frequent (and embarassing) urgency. A few months ago I started the peppermint caps, and they worked great! Unfortunately, as I got better, they started giving bad heartburn, so I had to stop. But since then I've upped my dose of fiber (I take psyllium, two teaspoons three times a day) and am following the IBS diet, and am ESCTATIC to report that I haven't had any D in two weeks! In fact. I'm beginning to go too far the other way (a little C) so I'll have to introduce more insoluble fiber until I find the right balance. I am sooooooo happy! So, if you're not using a fiber supplement, try one and it might make the peppermint caps (and heartburn)unecessary? Who knows??? Laura Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
