Re: Re: levbid

I am having the same problems. Levbid 2x a day, although no diahrhea, I have constant spasms in my intestines. I have had this since childhood. I have lost 85 lbs which was actually good for me but I hurt all the time. Especially after voiding. Staying away from caffeine, artificial sweetners, stress (yeah right!) do help. I also have terrible side effects: confusion, loss of memory, dry throat, headache, swelling due to not being able to urinate. Heating pad on stomach helps. But biggest help seems to be sit ups. Sounds crazy but dr. said the muscles in intestines move verticle and horizontally and with ibs they get out of synch. Sit ups help move muscles in a more natural position so they work as they are supposed to without cramping. Good luck. Sharon
