Digestive Advantage–IBS: The First Days

The week I chose to start Digestive Advantage–IBS turned out to be more stressful than I expected. This web site went down, for reasons that are not yet clear. I had meetings two days in a row in different parts of town, and transportation was disrupted by demonstrations. I promised two people copies of a report and wasn’t able to deliver them. Tuesday I had a tooth pulled, and had to take 4 amoxicillin capsules, against inflammation/infection. Amoxicillin always gives me diarrhea. You’ve all had weeks like this.
Symptoms
My changing probiotics from Align to Digestive Advantage-IBS meant that Monday and Tuesday nights were a little uncomfortable with gas pains. Wednesday morning, knowing I would have a stressful day, I took two Digestive Advantage-IBS caplets. I had no more pain, although sitting through a long meeting I was aware of silently passing gas.
By Thursday, I had dropped back to one caplet, and in a different meeting with different people I still silently passed gas a couple of times. (I don’t know about the “deadly” part because I do not have a well-developed sense of smell–makes for a certain amount of serenity!)
Thursday night, still another meeting, and then making one of those huge copies against a deadline, I had a very quiet tummy, and it is continuing today. No diarrhea from the Amoxicillin. That looks good for Digestive Advantage-IBS, so far.
Schedule
I’ll continue to report once a week, approximately on Friday.
