I tried 2 before finding one that worked for me. First was Citrucel, and it was horrible. I knew that was bad because even the tiniest bit had me doubled over with pain. Next I tried FiberChoice, and that was my winner. It did NOT make me feel instantly better, but it didn't make me feel WORSE, so I figured that was good enough for me. And sure enough, as I kept increasing, I had no problems with it, and eventually I got to a dose (9g/day) that made me feel better. Before that point, I really didn't feel like it was doing anything at all.
Since starting Lexapro, I've needed the SFS less, and since I honestly can't afford to buy one now anyway, I just don't take one. I think I'd be more stable if I started back up and took it regularly, but... well, lack of money wins this one.
And silly, you're not a pain - you're still looking for your answers, and I hope you find them so you can get feeling better!
