*For the soluble fiber powders (Acacia Tummy Fiber, Citrucel, Benefiber)
Start at 1 teaspoon twice a day and over the next week or two (or three or four) work up to 2 tablespoons twice a day, or the equivalent of 10-12 grams of soluble fiber supplement per day.



from web page

You can work up to 2 tablespoons 2x a day, so you may want to try adding some more Benefiber in. Maybe that could help?

When you list "Fennel" in your menu, does that mean fennel tea? If so, you can add a smaller dose of Benefiber to your fennel you have listed right after lunch.

Or it could even be Benefiber just doesn't do if for you. It didn't work for me - but it does work for a lot of other people. The fiber supplements are such a personal thing - there's no set rhyme or reason that if it works for one person, it will work for another. Hopefully, when you get the acacia, it will work for you.

As for the hypno - it can't hurt. The worst that could happen is it just doesn't work at all for you. I think it could help with your urgency though, because it helped me. I still remember last year when I was turning the corner onto the road my work is on, having the I-gotta-go-NOW feeling, and as I was turning, I did some of the hypno imagery and it worked! It was so neat! I'll never forget that.
