Hi - Some people do find that they just don't tolerate them, and they can get the soluble fiber basis they need from foods alone.

Other than starting with a small dose, try a wide variety of brands - Benefiber, Equalactin, FiberChoice, Citrucel - and try powders and pills. Sometimes this makes a big difference.

I find peppermint tea the best thing for pain.
