Well, since I came on board here and followed the program religiously, gave up my beloved cuppa joe every day, did the hypnotherapy program, increased my fiber, began taking probiotics, etc., etc., I've gotten SOOOOO much better! That was 3 months ago. Since then I've have 3 attacks, so on average once a month. Is that what you were asking?
While one attack a month seems like a lot, I can actually attribute each attack to something stupid I did -- so it's my own fault. I just can't be a bad girl and expect to get away with it. Bummer.
Are you doing everything you're supposed to, Sara? Taking your fiber every day, in the right amount? Following the diet exactly? Not cheating, are you? What about keeping a food diary so you can keep a record of everything you eat and its reaction -- that helps me track down the culprit.
I'm afraid I disagree with you about the D. I'm a D, and I think it has to be much worse to be a C. Okay, it's not fun tracking down all the public bathrooms nearby, but at least with D we can "get it all out;" how horrible to have C and have it all "backed up." Really, if you've gone from a C to a D, I say at least you're getting it out now.
Having said that, it probably doesn't make you feel any better. I'm glad you're seeing your doctor; is he a GI or your primary care physician?
Have you considered the hypnotherapy? It sure has helped me.
Hope you get over this attack soon. Two months is two months too long.
