A person who suffers from IBS has accumulation of toxins in his system mainly GI tract. Therefore he should abstain from junk food like wafers. Anyway continue with the tissue salts and the breathing exercises regularly.

Dear Doc,
Please find the result after taking salts on 2nd day:
1) Very tight motion
2) Less hunger
3) Little Nausea feeling
4) Taste of Food last eaten.
Also please find a little background about my proble
When I started homeopathy medicine i started with Biochemic combiantion 12 and 16. These are good but when I went for party or some social event, these combiantions are not enough to control my anxiety & nervousness.
One more thing I would like to add here that earlier when I am on Allopathic medicine, only anti anxiety and antidepressants help me to prevent from IBS, not any stomach medicine.
These I am telling you coz I personally feel that my IBS problem is only related with anxiety and phobia, neither any stomach problem.
Please suggest me which medicine now I proceed as I am scared to take those salt again, coz of so much constipation problem.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Mayank,
I am not a Dr. but as I can see your problem, I too am a sufferer of IBS and as you mention you seem to be restless and anxious. Do take the medicines that the Dr prescribes as above and I will suggest some foods that you can add to yur diet. It took me three months to get IBS under control. I suffered for a year- stomach pains/ gas loating and did not know what to do. Then I tried an elimination diet.
Try an elimination diet. See what suits you for a few days, if it does not then don`t eat it. Do no add oil in your food for a few months (2 atleast). You can add olive oil if it is available but don`t fry in olive oil. Even for vegetables boil them/ eat raw- avoid lentils, milk (you can eat yogurt if it suits you) spinach. Try eating - carrots, cucumbers, garlic, onions, celery, aloe vera, all Alkaline foods help.
You can eat fruits, but try avoiding fruit juices/ beer/ acidic drinks.
If you can, eat Sweet potato try little by little boil and eat- don`t add lemon to it only salt. Sweet potato and yogurts help restore the good bacteria in your bowels. Eat half portion every day. Do not eat junk food at all. It really destroys the god gut bacteria . Also for your tea do not add milk in it. Try taking it without milk, that`s the best tea. Eat chpatti`s instead of rice as rice. Try a restricted elimination diet- non-oily food with these medicines and stay calm. It really helps.
God bless

Homeo Remedy is a stimulation to vital force. When the patient indulges in other stimulations vital force ignores the remedy and follows other stimulations. So homeo remedies work best for those who avoid stimulants. Lachesis is specifically antidoted by alcohol so it is a double disadvantage for a lachesis patient to have alcohol.

Dear Mr. kadwa,
First of all thanks for all your help.
Doc, I personally observing that Lachesis 200 is not suiting me, coz of all the adverse reaction as I stated u above.
Doc, I found that pulsatilla helped me bcoz of its ability to control depression.
I took one dose without ur permission coz I feeling so bad from Lachesis.
can u help me and suggest the dose pattern for Pulsatilla or like wise remedy for all my probs.
thanks
