Hiya,
From what I understand, it is okay to take calcium supplements whilst you aren't eating any dairy.. I think too much calcium can be bad for someone with IBS-C, but can be helpful to relieve diarhea. Magnesium does the opposite so I think that if you go back and forth, the supplements that are Calcium and Magnesium are supposed to be good.
I also think it is normal to have some reactions when you first start taking any fiber that will lessen when your body gets used to it. When I first went on, I felt bloated and uncomfortable for a while but it went away.
Hope this helps a bit!
