Need to ask...did the stool and serum test verify it was BAM? And since the choylesyrtamine for BAM contains aspartame I know i need to avoid it cause i've known for years that artificial sweeteners give me the runs big time. Never could tolerate them. Although the gi doc gave me colistipol which is a pill form so have to research if it contains any artifical sweeteners. I've read a lot of people can't tolerate the powered form and all too often after a while it stops helping. So that puts it back into what's the problem? (maybe sugar is the true culprit?).
