Guest guest Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 I am treating an easily stressed elderly patient with IBS, who is also on meds for hypertension. I included and Vib op in her mix. She has been on this for over 6 months and her IBS is mostly a thing of the past. She came to see me very excited last Monday to tell me that her BP had fallen to 122/60 so her GP was taking her off one of her drugs. I mentioned to her that actually, there were elements in her mix that would have helped her BP to be fall. She looked quite disappointed. 'No. no' she said. 'It's nothing to do with my IBS mix, it's because I've become less stressed.'
