Yes avoid dramamine if possible!  I get motion sickness a lot, but I took that one time and never will again because apparently I was knocked out, but still talking to my friends (saying things I do NOT remember and can't believe I said!) An entire ride from Florida to Indiana, and I don't remember a second of it. Just a weird feeling....
A.R. - congrats on calling the clinic. I think it's a great idea, and I know it's helped me.
Do you take fiber first thing in the morning? I bet you'd have a BM in the morning even if you started taking fiber at noon or so. I take fiber twice a day, morning and before dinner - and *usually* I have a BM in the morning and that's it. Lately I haven't been feeling too great so I'm trying to figure out what's causing it. You will just have to see what happens when you switch to acacia. I mean - if you take citrucel in the morning, have a BM, and are happy about it - I wouldn't change it! But that's up to you.
I am so sorry about the anxiety and all. I think most people on this board have had it. When I first got IBS I was having anxiety/panic attacks ALL the time, everytime I left the house. I was so scared they would never go away.... They have, somewhat, but I still get them at night sometimes and mostly when I travel. I was only diagnosed with IBS this past March, but I have had these symptoms most of my life. My therapist is trying to help me out with those now though! They are awful, aren't they?? I get nausous, sweat, cry, my heart rate is up, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I hope things get better for you soon.
Take care!
