"metamucil may help side effects:
i started taking xenical 8 days ago and was quite nervous about the side effects, especially diarrhea because i have irritable bowel syndrome. because of this, i have spent much of my life running to the bathroom. 7 or 8 years ago one doctor recommended metamucil and it changed my life. i now take it twice a day and perhaps this is why i am not having any problems with xenical. it&#039;s worth a try anyway, in 8 days, i&#039;ve lost 5 or 6 lbs so am quite happy."
