Yes, because sulfites are a natural byproduct of yeast. Not all of us are sensitive to sulfites/yeast, however.

Hi Gabes,

You're most welcome.

As far as memory goes, like most people, I forget more than I remember, but I was always lucky to be a fast learner in school, so I manage to remember enough to get by, and if I forget some of the details, I can usually remember where to find them in a hurry - that helps a lot.

I'm still doing well. I take about half an Imodium caplet with each meal, and it seems to be about right. I still haven't resolved the middle-of-the-night problem, but I keep experimenting. Last night, for example, I tried eating my last meal of the day a little later, (at 8 pm), but I had to get up at 2:30, and again at 5, so that definitely didn't work out as planned. :lol:

Thanks for asking,
Tex

Dear Gabes,

Sorry you are still suffering. Hope you get past the low soon.

Dear Tex,

I hope your nighttimes get sorted soon. What did the docs tell you to expect on that?

Love, ant

:doctor: They just told me to, "expect a lot of volume, don't get dehydrated, and use Imodium". :lol:

Love,
