Hi Everyone,
An update on my progress and a report on the "Fruit-Eze" fiber supplement. I've gone from constipation to loose stool/diarrhea. I thought it was the Natural Calm (magnesium) supplement, but I stopped that for two days and still had the loose stools (2x/day, not like D several times a day).
So it looks like the Fruit-Eze has had a dramatic effect on getting things moving. HOWEVER, the gas, bloating and cramping has also come back during the time I've been taking Fruit-Eze. Not too surprising considering what's in it.
Also, I cut down to a much lower dose of Zelnorm and it seems to be working better than the HIGHER dose I was taking. I went from 6mg to 2mg. My doctor only wants me to take it once a day, because he says that will prevent the body from getting used to it and then I can take it for longer.
If I could only find a way to treat the constipation without causing more gas, bloating and pain. That's been my dilemma for years now!
