Roy, this is a long shot but I believe Benefiber is one of the vegetable gums? Like guar gum or something? I happen to be very allergic to them, a cross allergy from tree pollen. You might want to try one of the other supplements such as Citrucel or Metamucil. Many people have gas and bloating with Metamucil but I've been taking it for years with no problem. Start slow just like you did with the Benefiber.

Just a thought. Good luck and keep coming back!! We need more guys around here!!!!!
