Hi Augie, sorry to hear you're still not doing too well. I'm not sure whether my brands of supplements are Australian only... will see what I can find out. As for how much magnesium I take, each tablet is 250 mg and I take 4 a day. So, wow, that means I take 1000 mg a day (not sure how much of that is readily absorded tho...).
As for the acacia, I went a couple of months with really good BMs using simply probiotics, magnesium and a strict diet (GF, no red meat, no sugar, no dairy, no alcohol, no caffeine). I fell off the rails recently hence finding this wonderful message board and trying the IBS diet. If I can get back to the stage I was at - good BMs using just the supplements I was on - I will be really happy. If not I will try the SFS again and be much more careful this time with the dose (I think I upped the dose too quickly, hence the terrible bloating).
Anyhow will email you with the rest of the details you asked about. I really hope you find what helps you soon! Its such a terrible life when you're plagued by IBS symptoms.
