I am so glad Tuesday night was a good one for you and I hope last night was just as good.
I certainly agree that people don't get it if I say I'm on a "diet". I just tell them that I have a stomach problem (or I say IBS if I'm comfortable with that) and that I have to be super careful how and what I eat.
The only reason I suggested a powder SFS was because 24-30 tablets is a lot to take. If you're happy with the Citrucel, by all means stick with it.
The peppermint caps should be okay - they're coated so they don't dissolve until they get to your intestines, which means they shouldn't bother your reflux. However, I have seen posts on the Board from people who try them and get pepperminty reflux from them, so you'll just have to try and see. I'd say take one (not right before bed) and see how you do.
Take care.
