my riba diet works for me

I've found that  a bowl of oats with whole milk and 2 slices of buttered whole grain toast make my morning meal w/ riba go smooth. the evening, it's buttered whole grain bread with that meal and riba... works for me as far as any nausea and probably helps with the desperately needed fiber:(  lots of tangerines for snacks. warm liquid helps with the riba cough

Your diet sounds great and it's so important when treating with these meds.  One thing you may want to consider to keep your energy level up is to add in a small amount of protein with every meal if you are not Cirrhotic.  Protein evens out your blood sugar levels and sustains mood swings believe it or not.
Adding in some yogurt, eggs, peanut butter, cheese, chicken, nuts, and any form of dairy will keep you in balance physically and emotionally while going thru Tx
Be also sure to get out into the fresh air as as exercise will ward off any less then desirable side effects.  A 20 min brisk walk does wonders for your immune system, increases endorphins, and helps with getting a great sleep.
Your doing great!

Sounds like you have got the diet set!  I believe that eating correctly really helps...not only with the nausea, but helps the body so the meds can do their job!      Pat
