Hi Sara,

Heather's right. Trust her. She's been there.

I am a D also, and I take acacia. I'm up to 2-1/2 tablespoons a day. I also take Equalactin when I feel cramps coming on or have a stressful event.

I also take a probiotic every day.

I feel better than I have in a very long time, and it's getting even better every day. Now, bear with me if this gets a little gross; I'll try to tone it down a little. My trips to the bathroom are good ones, very satisfying, no D at all. I go at least twice a day, sometimes 3 times, and they're all very firm and, well, relieving. Also, they float (which means I'm getting enough fiber), whereas before I took the supplements they sank -- and they weren't nearly as "firmed up".

My apologies to anyone who might have been offended by this. I hope it helps you regain some confidence, Sara. Don't worry, the supplements won't make things worse, they'll make them better.

Heather would NOT lead you astray.
