I have been feeling really sick for the last week. If i eat anything more than soup, toast or rice. My stomach feels like cramps and burning. Now I started having Diarrhea. When I took tums that seem to help with the burning in my stomach. I can't deal with having a virsus on top of my IBS problems to.

I'm not sure I know that I've used it several times. Check online to see if it is alcohol.

I have a pretty week immune system, not sure if the ibs has anything to do with it or not. So it takes me about 3-4 weeks to get over a virus. I know that essential oils definitely help me. Other then that push fluids, and get those emergency vitamin packets.
