That will help carry you through. I've heard from people who took 6 months to gradually transition off laxatives and onto soluble fiber supplements, which I know is a really long time but they did have great results in the end (and saw improvements along the way). It's not fast or easy, but if you can stick with it and get your gut to gradually adapt it can work. - H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
