Hi Cyndy,

This will be only my fourth day on the Fruit-Eze, so it's probably too soon to tell. I've noticed a lot more gas and bloating again over the past couple days... hard to say whether that's due to the Fruit-Eze, the high doses of magnesium and vitamin C I've been taking, or just being severely constipated for so many weeks now. I have had a couple of BMs after starting the Fruit-Eze but they were very incomplete (hardly anything comes out).

I've also started the Acacia fiber at a very low dose, 1/2 tsp. 2x/day. This is only the third day on that. As for probiotics, I was taking them for about ten days and saw no improvement. Since they've always made the constipation worse, and caused a lot of gas and bloating along with that, I'm hesitant to keep taking them. Have you noticed a similar thing with probiotics Cyndy? Or do they help you?

Thanks for checking in. I'm pretty freaked out that I caused some kind of irreversible damage with those antibiotics. As I know you understand, it's beyond frustrating that my body can't do one of its most basic and necessary functions - elimination - on its own.

Chris
