Thanks. Mostly loose stools. Psyllium has helped with that. My main problem is that my bowel doesn’t empty completely when I have a movement, which causes me to continue to have movements during the day. Also, Psyllium is hard to take.

If you're finding psyllium hard to take another option is calcium polycarbophil (FiberCon). Does pretty much the same, always check with the doc.
