In the past I had lots of trouble with any type of fiber pill/powders. I didn't notice any difference in BM's only more or less bloating and gas, and extreme discomfort. I currently take Milk of Magnesia nightly , prescritption potassium, Zelnorm, and 1/2 tsp of acacia. Right now I am trying to lessen the MOM slowly and increase the acacia. I seem to either have D or C, nothing inbetween right now. I don't want to stop the D in fear of it leading to a C episode which usually ends up being a stay in the hospital. Heather's diet has helped tremendously in not having pain, and bloating.
