Working / Worked
Was still having some tummy troubles until I started on 20mg 4 times a dayand now cant go withoutthem or get bad cramping and bloating.
I only take it every now and then because I hate taking medicine. A lot of the times, I can't tell if it's working, I assume it's because I don't take it regularly.
if i do this at first twinge it works.

My father is a Doctor of Chiropractic. After taking xrays of my neck he found out that my axis and occiput and cervicals were completely left of center causing some of my symptoms after being adjusted numerous times with a specific move I noticed relief. Although it has not taken it away completely it has helped tremendously. However my worst dizzy spells come when I wake up in the middle of the night not being able to turn my neck from the severe dizziness. The chiropractic will take time.
It helps to a point
I have found this to be one of the best things to help with IBS.
it works when in super crisis

Great for IBS cramps.
This worked just fine until I started taking Effexor. They seem to interact so I don't take the bentyl anymore. The Effexor has helped so much with anxiety that I actually don't really need the bentyl anymore.

    What I meant was if you have any constipation problems do not use it. i'm not sure if it helps diarrhea, but its more for cramps than anything [More]

    It is NOT good for constipation. It stops the spasming in your bowels so it can cause constipation to get worse. [More]
