Have you ever been prescribed lactulose for constipation? It works better than Metamucil though for me there was a time my GI doc had me on both lactulose and Metamucil for constipation. The lactulose is a synthetic sugar, comes in liquid form, isn't the greatest tasting stuff, but it may be worth asking about?
