I don't think you can start the acacia that way, that's probably why you're not feeling so good. If you were taking Benefibre it would be fine to do the switch, but not with Citrucel. You'll have to start with about 1/4 teaspoon 2 times a days, then gradually increase to 1/2 teaspoon, and so on until you reach a level that you are stable.
For probiotics you can buy them in a health food store, and you don't need a perscription. There are many different kinds available, but I've had luck with both Primal Defense and Enzymatic Therapy's Acidophillus Pearls. Others here on this board have had success with (I think it's called)Jarrow Dophillus. You should start with only 1 a day and then gradually increase by 1 every few days, or every week, otherwise you may feel gassy and bloated until your body gets used to it. With the Enzymatic Therapy pearls, you only take 1 a day.
