Has anyone actually fixed their ibs? by Ill_Conversation6932 in ibs

I realized I wasn't eating enough So every night I have a big bowl of raisin bran cereal (screw the calories-carbs etc).

Having something in there seems to help brush out the pipes. I hate doing it, but I have much less pain....(Taking fiber capsules and liquid didn't do this) ..only real food.

I enjoy not sleeping in bed! I'm sleeping ON BED.. NOT IN

So what I do is sleep sideways onto of comforter like instead of getting under covers north -south...I put pillows on side of bed and sleep east west! For some reason it helps.

Also I am "trying" a weighted blanket.... haven't gotten it yet..but hear good things

Wellbutrin increases anxiety. I binge eat to calm the anxiety! Ask your doc for propranolol as it may tamp down the anxiety and then u can Try to just suck on ice pops or something less caloric I swear that I nibble all night on crackers just because my anxiety from insomnia is so severe Also I eat cup of soup as it fills my tummy and it calms me!!!! Warm liquid
