oh! i use Levsin, too, for attacks. i don't use it daily, like some people do. (my doc just instructed me to take it when i felt the cramping coming on) it works pretty well, but i have had even better luck with Equalactin. if i had a doozy of an attack, i'd use 'em both, since they do different things.

that's a lot of Benefiber. did you just start at that dose, or did you work your way up to that? i know with the Acacia we're aiming for 3 Tbsp as our goal, but i'm nowhere near that 'cause i find i'm sensitive to the dose changes. i go up by the tsp every few weeks...

if you added your doses too quickly, that could certainly explain the diarrhea...
