I have internal hemorrhoids and my gastroenterologist told me to try Psyllium Husk to loosen bowels. I did it for 2 days, it did loosen my bowels but I've had nausea, bloating, and stomach discomfort almost constantly. Has this happened to anyone else? I stopped taking it a couple days ago and the symptoms still linger :(
Maybe try fruit instead; this helps me without causing side effects. You may have had a reaction to Psyillum husks and it could take time for your stomach to recover. I don’t try anything unusual to help my bowel in case it causes trouble. The tried and tested method of fruit is milder.
Fiber kills me. I get cramps and very sick. Fruit like pineapple, strawberries help me.
