@Mountaindewed Have you tried IBGard? It's time release peppermint and maybe something else natural that is supposed to help IBS (obviously I know). My GI NP suggested I try it for nausea and bowel issues and it seems to be helping. She also has me using peppermint essential oil and that also helps more than I thought it would. For me it's not a cure for these symptoms but I don't have a lot of med options. My family dr doesn't want me on Zofran because it can cause prolonged QT syndrome in combination with clozaril. Phenergan makes me hallucinate. Metocopromide landed me IP with severe akathesia/mania. Carafate didn't help. Etc. So I'm so glad for this option.

Next time try a cake donut. They don't have filling and are less sticky. I think you can even get them without a glaze. I have done the same kind of thing but with ice cream. Bad idea on my part.
