Thanks for the help. I'm having a flare right now and am having trouble getting it under control. One thing that is causing me a lot of pain is trapped gas. I'm getting a lot of gas out, but my body just seems to produce more. Any suggestions? I'm taking librax, but it doesn't seem to be helping like it usually does, Elaine

Close Anxiety
i have had anxiety sevrely for about 3 years now although always been nervous and alot of it stems from childhood issues that havent been resolved!!
Treatments
- Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
- sometimes i can make it ease things others i cant get on top of it with breathing
- Hypnotherapy Not Working
- this for me was awful as i didnt like the feeling of not being in control so i then panicked !!
- Meditation Working / Worked
- when i did this everynight it was good to get me to sleep - i relaxed with a relaxation cd and a book !
- Positive Thinking Too Soon to Tell
- I am trying my best with this - and it is slowely working but i have jsut had a set back so im trying to get myself back on track with this !!
- Remeron Not Working
- i am off these now - i think it did help to a degree but i didnt feel right on them howver some of this was the fact they were anti depressants and not the right tabs for anxiety maybe ?not sure what it was so i came off them after two attempts.Side effects were fairly minimal however i put on 4 stone
- Valium Not Working
- i didnt like this as it made me very sickly the next day and for half hour of relaxed effects it wasnt worth it
- Celexa Too Soon to Tell
- will be starting these in the next week hopefully will be starting on 10mg as i have a fear of side effects and health issues.
Close Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
i started suffering from this about 7 years ago now - i had just got divorced and moved house and had no money and it kicked it for some strange reason never had any problems with it before atall untill that day !!
Treatments
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
- i avoid dairy (mostly)and i dont eat red meat. and try to stay away from fried foods.
- High Fiber Diet Not Working
- not for those of us that suffer with ibs-d
- Imodium Working / Worked
- my life line - however can block u up a little bit !! take one to start with only ever take two if its really really bad but then prepare for a good few days of being blocked to high heaven if i do
- Mebeverine Working / Worked
- brilliant if i use it as a pain killer as appose to three times a day
- Peppermint Working / Worked
- good stuff although i am not taking it at the moment - i am drinking peppermint tea as i find this more helpful right now !
- Probiotics Working / Worked
- will be starting thse very soon - i have the dairy free tablet form because of a slaight dairy intolerance.
Open Panic Attacks
started having these when i was pregnant with y daughter 8 years ago - scared the living daylights ut of me as i didnt have a clue what was going on !!
Treatments
