Beware of metamucil tablets!!!



Recommended Posts

So I take metamucil every day and thought it was all good until about 4 days ago I woke up feeling full and had a nagging stomach ache. I had not been able to eat anything or I would slime like a slobbery dog for hours, finally last night I had enough and I dont know what I was trying to achieve but I took a big drink of Water and stuck my fingers down my throat and up came these long swollen sausage shaped worms WHAT THE @#$% is that? I was thinking until it dawned on me it was the metamucil tablets. I felt instantly better. So be careful about how you take your fibre, god knows how Im going to get it now cos I cant keep the fibre drink down either.

I use benefibre - I sprinkle 2 tsps on my porride, or blend it into my soups/casseroles. It has no taste or texture at all.

My doc says to only use Benefibre as it doesn't congeal into that gelatinous mass like metamucil and a lot of the other fibre additives!

Nobody told me that but I will try.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
