Since my doctor decided its probably likely that I have IBS, he told me to take more fiber int he form of supplements like Metamucil/Benefiber and stuff like that. Taking metamucil will just make me more regular correct it won't make my stools really loose by any means? I just ask it says its a "Fiber Laxative" and I think the craps would piss off my intestines even more.
