DH has baaaaaad Stomach Cramps
 

Both Dh & I have been lc'ing since march 22 2003.

My Dh has Horrible stomach cramps in the morning before he goes to the bathroom for his BM. I have no problem, I don't even have gas or heartburn anymore since lc'ing!

He first thought that is was wine or hot peppers but he's cut those out and still he has cramps. I don't thinbk he drinks enough water, but even on those day when I forget to drink water I don't have cramps. I don't think he eats enough veggies. He also takes metamucil at night before bed.

Does anyone else have very painfull cramps?



:confused:

Is the pain just in the AM? My hubby had some pains, in his lower left hand side before BM (all of em) and he had diverticulitis. Evidently it is becoming a common ailment among men starting in there late 40's.

BTW: Nice to meet someone who shared my birthday! :)

Thanks for the info. I'll have him book an appointment with the doctor and have it checked out.

Nice to meet you too B-day Twin!!
You must be a Wonderful person and loved by everyone... ;)

I would think that Metamucil + not drinking enough water would = CRAMPS!

That fiber really expands and without enough water gets brick like (sorry for the visual!). Ouch!

Is he eating sugar free chocolate-Malitol gives many people cramps.

No Malitol

but not enough water & metamucil might be it too.
