Yes!!! Finding a SFS is going to be the death of me, or least give me a nervous breakdown I already bought the powder form, so too late for the capsules. So how much of the fiber form did you start with? Like 1/4 tsp x2 a day for a week then 1/2 tsp x2 a day, then 1 tsp x2 a day? How much are you currently on? I don't know what 2 doses comes out to be. Do you take the capsules? Or the plain powder in the green bottle, or the smooth orange flavor? I think that one might have artificial sweetner though.

If you do take the plain in the green bottle, how do you handle the taste? Isn't it nasty?

Thanks




I take the Orange Sugar Free Metamucil, though some people here find suger free products bother them, I also eat the wafers if I feel like it. Do you know if that would bother you? One dose is 3 or 3.5 grams, I forget. I think I started out with only a couple capsels a day, I don't remember if I took it once or twice a day. So yeah, try 1/4 tsp once or twice a day for a week, then up it a little, and just keep doing little by little. Takes patience to get up to the full dose, but if it works then it's worth it. If you get the green flavorless one, you could try it in juice or something? I never had that kind.
