With your IBS-C I don't know if food like that is an option for you.
What are you doing now for nausea?

As soon as I see "C" as a side effect, I typically try to stay away from it. I have been diagnosed with small intestinal transit and motility, which causes a lot of distress. The head injury (injuries) haven't helped.
All that I take currently when symptoms are are strong (4-6 days per week) is natural source Gravol with primary ingredient being ginger. It works relatively well actually. Didn't think it would have enough potency for me, but takes the edge off that's for sure. Works pretty quickly as well and doesn't come with that drowsy feeling you get from most anti N's.
What has also helped me quite a bit over the last week or so is Betahistine. It helps quite a bit with the dizziness/vertigo. I have tested negative for BPPV on several occassions, but I'm sure that I have a vesitbular issue that the med helps, as I get very dizzy (daily) and the med, although geared towards meniers disease helps me quite a bit. Even lessens the brain fog, which is nice and no other side effects for me.
