Irritable Bowel Syndrome
"I have had IBS D for 20 years but controlled with immodium and bentyl..Three years ago it was uncontrollable.Could not leave the house Stool cultures ,colonoscopy , blood work ,xrays and scans due to pain all negative. Immodium didnt work.Doctor termed as unspecified colitis and IBS D. Now taking lomotil, hyoscyamine, donnatol, and cholestyramine.This makes life bearable.Tried xifaxin and did nothing.Now got the 100 mg viberzi 2x daily. Took one pill with food yesterday morning. Within 15 minutes my legs turned to rubber, heart was racing, cold sweat, and difficulty breathing. The heart racing and breathing went away within half hour but the rubber legs lasted about five hrs.Severe abdominal pain, gas,metal taste til last nite. No more."
