SFS-When is it time to change?

How long is long enough to try an SFS before giving up on it? I realize that in the beginning of trying a new one, I might experience bloating or gas, etc., but how do I know if a different choice might be better for me, more effective. It's hard to figure out if the symptoms are from food, SFS, or stress.

I currently take Clear Mix Citrucel, because it isn't suppose to bloat like psyllium, yet I am still constipated (at 7g fiber now). And I still get cramps, spasms and bloating and gas.

Is it time to change? How long is a good time period to try an SFS?

One unrelated question, does anyone know if probiotics, like jarro, work for constipation and diarrhea? Should they be taken more for one than the other? Like 2 or 3 a day for D, but only 1 a day for C?
Thanks in advance.
