What did your doc say? concerning what? it's weekend so have talked to her this weekend when I seen her though she say take antibotics and probotics or eat yogurt with it in it.

I did start it yesterday :-) Had it yesterday and today that orange cirtus in it gives me heartburn anyways tomorrow I'll try taking it twice a day been taking it once a day since I'm still on an antibotic. I still have like 6 days of Bactrim left but will still up it to twice a day..What is some schedule taking it that you all stick too?

Sam you shouldn't need stool softener if you take Metamucil daily. The product does act like a laxative and should push all waste out your colon without any issues.

Drink down swiftly because it will set up like jelllow if you wait more than one minute.
