Good luck.........I hope you can get it controlled.

Thanks for the suggestions.  I've tried everything under the sun for my IBS, but it's really hard to do things that help my wacky hormones and don't hurt my IBS. Ironically the form of IBS I've struggled with for over a decade was diarrhea so I'm a little bemused by this constipation. I'm working with a naturopath who's helped me on a lot of things.
