I can empathize with everyone. It's not a pretty problem.
After 3 months of diarrhea followed by 10 months of bloating and constipation, my GI tract seems to be slowly calming down. What I did differently:
1. Drank as much water as possible. About 12 cups/day (includes herbal teas and the occasional smoothie)
2. Increased intake of raw vegetables. I eat raw salads for lunch at least 3 times/week and snack on raw carrots, celery sticks, or peas
3. 5 small meals/day
4. Increased intake of nutraceuticals: multivitamin, Vit. D, quercitin, coEnzyme Q10, turmeric, NAC
5. Daily intake of either prunes or dried apricots
It wasn't a sudden change, but I noticed some normal bowel movements, which have increased in frequency over time. (I'm now at 14 1/2 months post-infection) BTW I'm still on the waiting list to see the gastroenterologist. I just tried what I thought made sense from these posts and off the internet. ...
Or maybe I was just lucky.
Wishing everyone a speedy return to health.
