Best type of fiber supplement during recovery?

Postby joedoe34 » Tue Feb 27, 2018 1:30 pm

I had an FMT two months ago, and about 3 weeks ago my post-infectious IBS-D got worse. I am testing negative for c-diff. Have any of you had luck with fiber supplements to help diarrhea? There are so many different kinds!

Fiber supplement sometimes can actually worsen the D so it must be taken in very small amounts at the beginning to see how you system tolerates it. You must try the brands first to see witch one agrees with you . Some people did well with Metamucil , some with Benefiber , or Citrucel.
