SIGNIFICANT improvement in cramping finally

Wanting to share in case this helps anyone... I have had crohn's/colitis since 2000. I have achieved remission on remicade (since 2008), however still dealt with abdominal (particularly left sided) cramps almost nightly. They would usually start around 6pm and go throughout the night until I had a BM in the morning. It was like trapped gas which is pretty painful and very annoying. It affected many things as you can imagine and have possibly experienced yourself. Anyways, I got a good improvement from diet (Low FODMAPs), which I have also been on for 6-7 years, but still got the trapped gas feeling almost nightly. My gastro had recently recommended amitriptoline (sp?) for intestinal nerve pain, but I was hesitant to try after reading some others' experiences.

So here's my good news... I have been taking a product (Plexus Slim) which my sister had started selling for about 2 months now and I have only had 4 stomachaches since! And three of these stomachaches were 3 days before my remicade treatment (which was 3 weeks late due to change in insurance!). I usually only have about a two week window between remicade treatments where I feel good, and I've been feeling great since taking this product. I'm very excited about it and would like to share my experience if anyone is interested. Most of all I'm thankful to feel good in the evening. I don't take it for granted. I still follow my diet as well.

Google it....it's a slimming aid...a weight loss drink supplement...

Yes it is marketed as a weight loss tool. That is why my sister began taking it and selling it. Many people have experienced other benefits and I was surprised at my lack of cramping. It does not give me gas at all, but it does stabilize blood sugars which causes decreased appetite/cravings, so if you don't eat well might not be good. Low fodmaps has def helped with gas production and plexus seems to have eliminates the nerve pain in my large intestine.
