I lived with her through this including all visits with the doctor and all of the dietary experimentation. As you know, there is plenty of advice about what not to eat and drink but I've seen nothing about foods or drinks which are preventive or even helpful in reducing symptoms. Over-the-counter medications such as Imodium can help control diarrhea but the more potent anticholinergic medications used to treat abdominal cramping and spasms are not available OTC. Through my daughter's experience, I learned just how painful and disruptive to your life this condition can be. I wish you quick relief. I know it's almost impossible but try to avoid as much stress as possible. Good luck!!
