I have IBS and am taking Fybrogel for it, but since I've started taking it I've gotten much worse with bowels and flatulation, which isn't really very helpful. Any advice please?

I am 28 years old, and I just started waking up in the middle of the night having to go to the bathroom, sometimes even twice a night. I have not changed habits (such as drinking a whole bunch of fluids before bedtime), so I don't know if this is just me "getting older" or if there is a problem. I used to be able to sleep through the night, and now I never can. I do have recurrent kidney stones and UTI's (for which I've seen a Urologist), but am I just being paranoid? It's kind of annoying after being used to sleeping through the night!

Sorry so long....

My mother (75) was in the hospital during x-mas time. During that time they diagnosed her with diabetes/pre-diabetes. She was having blood levels ranging from 130-265 while in the hospital. We got the glucose meter....etc, and started testing at home. We also went and seen a dietician and she was puzzled with my mother's at home readings, that were only ranging from 91-130. She is not taking any insulin at this time.

Fast forward to last week when my mother had to have a 12 hour fasting labwork done at the hospital. The hospital said her blood glucose was 195. I don't understand how. We have never been able to duplicate such a high reading at home, especially not eating anything for 12 hours.

I have calibrated the meter and it is fine, but I don't know what is going one. If anyone has maybe some insight as to what is going on, I would love to hear it. Could the hospital's tests be off in some way?

TIA!!!!

I have a 12 year old ADHD child who is on Adderall. He gets up almost every night and gets into things, like eating and hiding it, or breaking his brother's stuff. His doctor told me to try melatonin and that is not helping. I have 4 children and he is the only one with ADHD and I am at a total loss with this kid. Any advice from other ADHD parents or people that understand this frustration I would love and appreciate some help.

And for anyone who says its disipline, its not trust me, we have tried everything, and like I said I have 3 other children and if it was disipline I would be having these problems with all of them and I am not.
