thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....

it seems like you have a diarrhea type of ibs.....
it is commoner than the constipating type....
well you can do the following-

take small frequent meals
take less fatty food and more dietary fibres
take tab normaxin-rt one tab twice daily for 15 days
you can continue metamucil powder in place of fibres

give me a feedback after 15 days..
if it is not better than before, you should see your doctor for checkup and investigations...

hope this was helpful...
regards
