I used to eat broccoli, but no more since it really affects me. I was told to take 'A' metamucil, but I should try taking more. I'm actually trying to stay away from high fiber while I am having pain because I guess it means that something bad is happening if I have pain. As I do today! I should take a 1/2 pill tonight to make sure I can go to the bathroom tomorrow since I haven't in two days. Nor unusual for me! I only drank liquid for lunch today and ate fish, baked potato, and a slice of pound cake for dessert. I sure miss a real dessert. I did eat jello the past two nights for dessert. What else can I eat for dessert? Hmmmm, I wonder.

Well, the half pill for a BM didn't work. Tonight I ate a peeled apple and a boiled potato with salt. Half hour later: Attack! The knife attack!! I now wonder if my colon doesn't like apple or potato. Time for another pain pill.
