drinking psylllium powder is disgusting

Are you using so much that it would be hard to fill your own capsules?  I think it should work as well to do something like this, because I know Metamucil has a caspule product.  Here's one of the first pages that came up when I googled "capsules for making pills."

Yesterday was day 14 at 2 teaspoons twice a day and I only had to use the toilet once. The last time I only had to go once was back on October 15th. This morning I nearly filled the toilet to overflowing (got to love that prednisone) so I suspect that I won't need to go again today either. I still have a tinge of blood on my stool which is probably from hemorrhoids but at least the blood is no longer dripping into the toilet.

Given that the prednisone didn't perform for me like it had in the past, I have been amazed at the results of using psyllium seed powder. I just ordered a years supply yesterday (12 pounds) for about $80 so hopefully I stay in remission the entire time. February is my next time I typically flare so I will need to wait and see. Once I run out of the other stuff in my signature in a couple of weeks, I plan to stick to the following for my maintenance and keep my fingers crossed.

Vitamin D3 - 5000 IU once per day;
Psyllium Seed Powder (2 teaspoon) - twice per day; Flaxseed (2 tablespoon ground) - once per day;
Asacol - 2 400mg pills 3 times per day; Mesalamine Enema - twice per week

Sadly, I need to have surgery again on my perianal abscess (another fistulotomy and seton placement) which means I'm going to need some painkillers. I don't plan to do 2400mg per day of Ibuprofen again since it did major damage to my colon and rectum which made this flare far worse. Maybe I'll just live with the pain this time.

Please remember to take some caution as to not breathe in the psyllium....it can cause some lung irritation.

As of right now I'm taking psyllium seed powder every morning (1/2 Tbsp) mixed in applesauce or yogurt. Either is MUCH more tolerable than in a glass of water. Tried that once--never again. Too gross and grainy. I don't have a blender right now but I'm thinking about getting one just for this reason. It'd be nice to make a smoothie or something and mix it it.

Any other ideas of what to mix the powder in would be great!

LFTC, you're "trying to live drug free," yet you're injecting yourself with HGH? I think you're a little confused about what is a drug. Not all of them come from pharmaceutical companies.

I wish you all the luck in the world, but I hope all of your experimentation doesn't come back to bite you later.
