Kim -
I don't think it's dehydration - but who knows - the slightest change can alter poo and most the time it goes unnoticed by people - except for us fissure folks.

Yes, I hate being dependent on things. I am very blessed to be felling well, however, I feel like if I stopped my benefiber, my healing would be short lived. The good news is that we never have to stop taking the benefiber - it is natural and we can take it for years. Tonight is the last night I am taking miralax - I need to see if my BM's are back to normal.
I hope your feeling well!
