Hi Mrrzy,

I'm hoping you will get some relief soon.

My go-to remedy is psyllium (i.e. the beneficial ingredient in Metamucil without all the unnecessary extra added ingredients) made from the seed husks of the plantain plant, which grows as a weed around here on the footpaths etc. But, recently I found psyllium husk powder in the health food aisle of the supermarket and it works like a charm. It's not a grain. It's pure fibre.

Warning: Too much would definitely be too much of a good thing!

I use a heaped teaspoon in my fruit and fibre shake which I have three times a week. I use the blender to moosh it all together into a yummy drink. (I like milk, but any liquid would do, but I wouldn't recommend alcohol, sorry! :-D I know you would like something to calm you down a bit, but....)

It usually takes about a day for the first dose to have effect so give it time to work its magic.
