Remember to start with a low dose of the acacia and work up slowly. I did 1/2 teaspoon a day for 3 days, then 1 teaspoon a day for 3 days, and so on.
The pain is a little worrying, although it may well be from the continuing C. You mention in your earlier posts talking to your doctor and/or nurse practitioner. Maybe you should call them again and see what they have to say since this has gone on for so long. If nothing else, they could give you some advice on whether you should do the CAT scan.
One other thought. In one of your earlier posts you mention getting Dicyclomine. One of the side effects I found listed for this drug is constipation, so you might talk to your doctor/nurse practitioner about that, too.
HTH. Feel better soon.

I second Michele's advice on adding IF and starting the acacia. (more)
