Things are looking up I Think

I would like to start tonight by saying Thanks to all those who have made positive comments! I also think that writing this blog is helping me to cope with the turmoil.

Well I went to the doctors about the IBS on Monday and after some discussion with her I got some medication that seems to be working and if I am still burping a little, there is a pleasant minty taste to it now.

My Mum seems to be improving as well, Sunday evening the hospital diagnosed another infection after they got the results of blood tests and started treating her for that and she is a lot perkier than she was and is capable of laughing and joking now. This means that we are all now feeling a bit more comfortable with the way things are progressing.

I jst wanted to say that it's good to hear of your Mum's improvement ( have lived through the big C myself) also to say that there are some very effective treatments for IBS now including Buscopan and Aloe Vera drinks. Isolating things that spark it off can be a help too, things such as gravy granules and wheat products can make it irritate ( I have IBS so I have learned the hard way,lol).

Wishing you both well :) GG xx

How are you getting on? Is Mum still improving and your IBS treatment working a little better after having a chance to kick into your system?

Do keep us posted :)
