I started my Acacia fiber yesterday. Took 1/4 teaspoon in yogurt yesterday morning....and 1/4 teaspoon in pudding yesterday evening. This morning I had gas and 4 loose stools before leaving the house for work. I took one Lomotil and that worked. Is it the Acacia fiber that caused this? Or something I ate yesterday?

The dairy isn't recommended...although that is a debated topic. The acacia could also be causing your symptoms.

No, I don't take Acacia. I tried it for almost 6 months...and my body just didn't "like" it. I tried but came to realize it wouldn't help me.

This was my advice to you in this thread a few days ago. , http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=diet&Number=307235&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&vc=1[/url] and the yogurt is dairy which is a no no for IBS.
I also responded to you in a little more detail in your other thread from today.

sorry..... I misread your post and then when I got my order the can says to start with 1/2 tsp. So that's why I increased it. I'm just in such a state of confusion right now and frustration. I'm so tired of trying things that are supposed to work and I guess I'm rushing the results, too, because we are going on a road trip the beginning of July and I'm nervous that I won't feel well.

keep taking the acacia. When you go on your trip, take imodium with you.

Did you ever find an SFS that helped you without the nasty side effects?
If not, what do you use/do to replace it? I'm so disappointed Acacia doesn't seem to be agreeing with me.
