I have been part of this board since 2003 and hae had my ups and downs, but have YET to make it 30 days without an attack. I started Acacia one June 26, hoping after trying all other fibers over the past 20+ years it would help, I did really well for about 3 weeks, than boom, sever colon pain, IBS attacks, diarrhea, nausea, tons of bloating, I just don't know what else to do, I am eating next to nothing and still taking the Acacia, but I am getting so discouraged!! I had a severe attack last night, one like I hadn't had in a while, but it hurt, followed by my trademark explosive diarrhea. I was taking citrucel before the acacia and did a slow transistion, but I have to wonder will I ever be pain free??? I read all these great testimonials and just do not understand why I can't regulate......I rarely stray and just don't understand how plain rice, and water, fennel tea, peppermint caps and my acacia can cause me so much pain??? I've had 3 colonoscopies and my GI doc is clueless. I'm sorry I guess I just needed to vent and know I will be okay, I can't imagine having attacks with as much pain as I do, when I'm 50 or 60, I would think it would kill me. Thanks for letting me vent. Any suggestions or thoughts would be very appreciated
