Im sure warm water is ok....and as far as the metamucil my doctor recommended that for me also on a daily basis....my nurse suggested warm prune juice if you can stand it she said its a sure fire thing, I couldnt stand the taste of it so I cant say if it works...lol

I had that problem at first also, my doctor told me to take one to two tablespoons of Milk of Magnesia Daily.  And I will tell you that it does help, a lot.  The texture is horrible, but constipation is worse, lol.
