I do, about three times a year I will have spells that are quite bad, in terms of the burning discomfort. I find the bile acid sequestrants (Questran Lite) to be very good. Basically you take a sachet in a glass of water before eating. Generally works well for me in a few days.

Thank you for your reply and welcome to the site. The people here have been very helpful and supportive.

I don't know for sure that Bile Salts Diarrhea is what my problem is but the symptoms fit (and make sense) and I can say for sure that the problem is not specifically related to what I ate. I have been taking Olestyr (same thing as Questran) since I already had some that had been previously prescribed before my takedown.

I am very glad to hear that it [hopefully] is a temporary and intermittent thing. I've been bothered for over a week now but only started taking the Olestry since my research led me to the Bile Salts thing. Hope to see improvement before I go completely insane.

Thanks again.
