Do try to add in more insoluble fiber. I am also IBS C and if I eat too much soluble without enough insoluble, I get more C. Its not about cutting back the soluble, its about slowly increasing your insoluble fiber. Try some hummus and pita, or add some peas to a pasta salad, I can even do a small salad or raisin bran cereal once a week or so. Most people can't tolerate the salads or raisin bran but I find my body needs that much insoluble sometimes.

Exercise and lots, lots and lots of water.

If you need immediate relief, try a glycrein suppository. They don't give you the cramps and explosive D that regular laxatives do. They just stimulate you to go, I find they usually do the trick for me.

Hope this helps and you feel better soon.
