hi,

i've been diagnosed with ibs, but have found that i don't have classic ibs symptoms, and my ibs is probably a related disorder as a result of CANDIDA or maybe celiac (in the process of being tested).

i had a terrible time with the ibs diet..all the soluable foods/carbs KILLED ME! i was in so much pain..gas..intolerable...went gluten/yeast/wheat/"everything" free. (just eating chicken, tofu, romaine) and feel sooooo much better. no fog feelings, body feels better, etc...

i'm thinking it might be a candida issue, so plan on taking some probiotics (ThreeLac, anybody tried this?). i need something to keep my stools moving..since i'm typically constipated as it is.

i had tried the acacia tummy fibers during my ibs diet, but felt horrible during that time. i'm wondering, since the acacia is soluable fiber..will i have the same PAINFUL, gas and bloating with that, as i did with the diet (breads, grains etc?) i know it's hard to tell if i have an intolerance to wheat, gluten, yeast or whatever..but just wanted to find out if acacia would somehow mimmick the problems that i had with the carbs..or is it pretty neutral? will it really get me cleansing? (as i build up to it?) can my family use it w/o problems since they are not ibs?

sorry for all the questions..thank you!
