I'm glad I've been keeping a food/symptom journal on the fitness board, because I've actually noticed something!
Last Monday, the 3rd, I increased my Acacia to 11.5 grams per day (2 3/4 tsp in the am, and 1 tbs in the pm). By Wednesday I was having TWO BM's every morning. I'd go once and about 15-20 minutes later I'd go again. Before that, when I was on 11 grams, I was going once pretty regularly.
This past Monday, the 10th, I increased the Acacia to an even 12 grams (1 tbs in the am, 1 tbs in the pm). This morning (Wednesday again) I ALMOST had THREE BM's. I kind of liked it when I was just going ONCE.
Could this be the Acacia? Should I drop back down to 11 grams per day?

IBS-A since age 12, and fructose sensitive; with the exception of my pregnancy, have been following Heather's diet since Nov. 19, 2007.
Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
