Hi Rosie,

That's great news, and
I can't take aspirin for more than a single dose at a time - even enteric; it aggravates IBS and I begin bleeding almost immediately.

I did start R-Lipoic Acid a few weeks ago (you didn't mention if it's part of your regimen) and have had similar results. Within 48 hrs the burning stopped completely, and hasn't returned yet. I understand my results are not typical; it can take up to a couple months for some folks, if it works at all. But it's another option to try.

Doc
