Hey Anita! Welcome to the boards! I have the same problem as you, though I have never been a D person (sometimes I wish I was BUT I know how bad they have it as well so I try to get those thoughts outta my head!!!) Anyway, are you on the diet? What are you eating and what meds are you taking? If you click here you'll go to the diet page, which tells ya what the diet's all about, trigger foods, and most importantly about SOLUBLE AND INSOLUBLE FIBER.
I'm also taking metamucil right now...I HAVE to give it time, but so far my bod seems to be holdin' on to whats in there. *sigh* I understand your pain...this weeks been hell for me, to put it bluntly. I haven't "gone" more than once and even then it was nothing...sorry TMI...
But anyway, I get how you're feeling, and these boards help a lot for suggestions and support. Just ask away and we'll try to help as best we can. Oh, also check this out. It's the soluble fiber supplements page. (BTW, here they are also commonly known as SFS's)
Lastly, please check out JenX's info for Newbies post It's got tons of great info!!
If you have anymore questions just ask away!
