Heather's acacia gave me attacks, even in small amounts, unfortunatly. I use Metamucil, out of the ones I've tried it's the only one that works for me. I really like it though, it allows me to eat a greater variety of foods and be ok It doesn't totally help my constipation, but it helps a bit. I also take 2 Colace(store brand actually) a day, and that helps as well. I also try to get as much insoluble fiber as I safely can. I eat apples everyday and I recently noticed that they're helping me go better(the SFS helping me to digest them better). I'm wicked bad about getting enough water though. The combination of these things helps me go everyday now, though I still feel C when I go (straining/small amounts). But I used to only be able to go once a week, so hey it's an improvement!
