How to treat IBS with Herbal Medicines?
just wrote you, don’t know if it went through and so….I am a woman 72, living in Mexico. I was very sick this past year from bacteria, food etc. and I had typhoid 3 times, amoebas, you name it. I have taken so many antibiotics, that although I am now parasite free, my intestinal tract is suffering. I have constipation alternated with diarrhea – I am eating lightly, organically when I can, drinking lots of water and so on, but although I have had IBS for years, it was never as consistent as now.
Do you think your herbal medicine can help me? If so, is it possible for me to send a check because my pin number for my Visa is messed up and I am dealing with the bank on it. However, if you think this would help, I would not want to wait and would appreciate being able to send a check?
Please write me and thank you.
