"I had been prescribed this by my MD.  I have Crohn&#039;s for past 6 years after first being diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in 03&#039;.  Had colon removed due to UC for &quot;cure&quot; in 05&#039;.  I go between constipation and diarrhea normally since operation, but diarrhea mostly b/c no I have no colon.   Been having problems with constipattion, bloating &amp; feeling toxic on &amp; off for past several months.  The first day I tried this I was having such severe abdominal cramping.  I went one time whet there was moderate diarrhea, (again normal because I can&#039;t form solid stool due to no colon).  After that I was on and off the toilet MULTIPLE times with little coming out, but enough to excoriate my butt.  Couldn&#039;t even keep up with cream I was using.  The awful cramping continued."
