I do take citrucel as that's the sfs I can tolerate. I understand about your not wanting to move alone. It is horribly stressful. I have wanted to move back to Chicago for so long to be by friends and family, but I need the bathroom freedom my job provides, and cost of living is way cheaper here in AZ. Makes all of life easier. There are a few other girls on the board here in AZ, so if at some point you did move, you wouldn't be alone. There are lots of great naturopathic hospitals out here too... but I don't know that they can help us anymore than the traditional docs. You are probably on a little bit of overload here... too many people with too many suggestions. Can I ask when was the last time you took any type of true laxative? Do you have problems with them?
