When taking fibre supplement       05/31/04 08:53 PM Edit Reply Quote Jerryn Reged: 02/22/04 Posts: 42 Loc: New Brunswick, Canada Hi My GI had to dilate my pyloric sphincter at the duodenum this past Friday and when I came to, he was telling me to really put a stronger effort into increasing my fiber intake-both insoluble and soluble. I told him that no matter how hard I try, I get so bloated and the pains are so intense, I end up backing off. Is it normal for someone who is IBS C to have a few bouts of D when increasing fiber intake? I'm starting slowly and he insisted that the metamucil supplement will not harm me, maybe cause a little bloating but it will go away in time. Am I just being a chicken with this pain? Does anyone else go through this-from C to D and will it even out in time? Thanks a bunch!! Jerry Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
