metamucil (maybe TMI)

So yesterday I took Metamucil on the advice of my dr, even though I think I get a fair amount of fiber and don't think I'm all that constipated.  OMG...I thought I was going to die.  So nauseaus, my stomach was making kooky noises all day and it was a tough day.  That's my warning to everybody, don't take Metamucil (even if your doc says you should) unless there are clear, constipation issues.  It's not pretty.

I'm sticking with the fart bars.

    I ate a fart bar yesterday and 2 double fiber english muffins. No gas yet. I hope I don't explode.

    I went online and it said to just stick with it while your body adjusts to the Metamucil, but seriously, if it had been a work day, I would've had to call out sick.  At one point, I was actually crying.

    I use benefiber and that doesn't do anything crazy to me.  I take it every day to prevent constipation.  There was a point when I didn't poo for like 6 days...so now I just take the benefiber every day so we don't get to that point again...it wasn't pretty.

    I'm sorry the metamucil made you so sick though!  That sucks!
