Has anyone been told by their dr. that citrucel is the only way to go and has been able to transition to an alternative s.f.? I have IBS-C, and have been severely constipated my whole life. My GI determined it is spastic colon, and told me I will be taking Citrucel for the rest of my life. The problem I am struggling with is that I am now up to 8scoops/day and am not comfortable at all with the amount of chemical sweetener (not to mention calories) I am ingesting. I also am trying to get pregnant which is another concern related to the aspartame. My dr. is unwilling to discuss any other avenues so I am totally frustrated. Not to mention that I have yet to see if my new dose will actually work. I am curious about possibly transitioning to Acacia...or anything. Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
