All of your comments caught my eye. These symptoms have all been
sneaking up in stages & now I'm seeing that they may simply have been an
indicator of endo approaching. I found some help w/abdominal pain from
the ichelp.org website. They suggested Prelief (which you can get at
Rite-Aid in with the products for indigestion, etc.) And there is a
natural product called Cysta-Q that I haven't tried yet. Also fiber
capsules helped with the IBS. Wish I could be of more help but I'm in
the gathering info stage myself. I'm waiting for more sites that
address your/our concerns. Let us know if you find anything.
