[Everything doTERRA] Re: IBS

I too have IBS, though not as severely as you. When I experience the pain DigestZen has given me relief.  I use it two ways: Massage 1-2 drops of DigestZen around the belly button (or directly over the pain site) and/or a drop under my tongue. The relief is felt within a few minutes.  For some reason I'm always surprised that putting a drop under my tongue works just as quickly as direct application.

Have you tried the LifeLong Vitality [LLV] supplements? I can't say enough about them.  My husband had GI issues for 30 years and when he started taking the LLV he got the first long-term relief he's ever had. He started slowly, just taking 1 from each of the three bottles in the morning and after about a month added the same dosage in the evening.  This is half of the recommended dose and it is working well enough that he is staying at that level. All the prescriptions over the years only provided short-term relief.  He experienced his first day of relief just three days after starting the LLV, and would have a flare up on occasion, but even the flare-ups have disappeared.

You may also want to try a regular regimen of 1-2 drops of frankincense massaged onto your lower abdomen and/or bottom of your feet 1-3 times each day to address any internal trauma from the surgery and inflammation from the on-going symptoms.

I've had overall good health all my life, until a routine bowel resection to   remove a benign polyp 14 years ago at the age of 68. That surgery seemed to   trigger an extreme case of IBS (irritable bowl syndrome)for which doctors have   been unable to help me find relief.  Have had symptoms of celiac disease and   lactose intolerance ever since. I no longer seem to digest grains of any kind   very well.  No matter what I eat, I regularly experience painful digestion and   especially elimination. Burning sensation inside the intestinal tract and bowel   spasms. Have tried gluten free diet and lactose free diet without consistent   relief.  Have also done a doterra candida cleanse but continue to experince   severe discomfort with the same symptoms.  Tomorrow I will finish another of Dr.   Christopher's 3 day juice cleanses and am considering using doterra "digestzen".    Does anyone have recommendations for how I might use this essential oil? Any   other recommendations?
