When I would have d attacks, I felt like I was going to be physically ill as well. I would get really hot and shaky and when I was done, I found that slowly drinking water and using a cold wash cloth like on my neck really helped. The headaches also went away with a warm shower or bath...not too hot though. The doctor said that it was just the stress of having d symptoms and that it was normal when the attacks are really bad. I found the more I tried to relax and not get upset because I was having an attack, the feeling of having the flu was not as extreme. I really hope some of the things that helped me work for you!

Hello!
I take probiotics. Florastor works REALLY well. Have you tired that? Also, diet is important. Look up the Paleo Diet, it really is an amazing diet. Lots of info on Google and around here as well. Feel better! Glad you are on this site!
