What Causes Diarrhea And Abdominal Bloating After Taking Fibercon?
My Dr. told me to take Fibercon every day 2 of them with 8 oz. of water for constipation and irrital bowel syndrome. I have been taking for 13 months every day and have developed diarrhea every day for the past few months. Lot of bloating, bad smelly gas and stomach cramps. She is putting me through ultra sound which is fine now waiting on Stool samples. Do you think I am taking to much of this.
