I guess I belong to the D&C type too. I am usually C type, but get D flare-ups that can last anywhere between a couple of days to several months. I am in such a D flare-up right now, have been for over 2 months now. I would say that the D is worse to cope with than C. Hormone changes also make it all worse.Alison, I'm interested in hearing how you're doing with the treatment from "overcomeibs". If you decide not to post your progress on this board, could you email me privately? My email address is ewink2###yahoo.comI was looking at that website a while ago, and was almost considering it. The reason why I didn't do it was because he has you stay away from wheat and dairy for a while. I went to a naturopath about 6 weeks ago or so and she had me do that, and I got so much worse and lost even more weight (which I really can't afford!). But it could also have been that she had me on the wrong supplements; she had me stop all the things I was taking and dumped a whole list of other stuff on me instead.Regards,Edith
