Re: Fiber supplements       01/30/03 10:39 AM Edit Reply Quote Claire Reged: 01/27/03 Posts: 65 Loc: Paris, France Hello woohoo! As mentioned in a mail a few days ago, I too had difficulty with fibre supplements. The only one that seems to work for me is a brand called "Poly-karaya" which is a soluble fibre supplement. I live in France so I'm not sure if it is available in the states or in England. I tip 2 sachets into an empty small container and carry it round with me at all times (along with a small bottle of mineral water). As for imodium, I have heard it reccomended to take a small dose every day (1mg). I find the liquid form of immodium to be really practical and about every three days I take a teasponn which seems to firm up my stools. I have also found a small (15mg) dose of amytriptilne to be really helpful in slowing and calming things down a bit. Bye for now, Claire Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
