OP listen to /u/crazyherb. Psyllium husks. This shit is amazing and your shit will be too.
Those fancy flavoured ones in the supplement store in big plastic bottles are expensive, and may even be packed in individual sachets which jacks the price up even more. Psyllium husk capsules are also expensive and the quantity is way too little to really make a difference.
Go to a natural food store or amazon and buy it in bulk, unflavoured, cheap. No need to get those processed into powder or drink mixes or whatever. Just get the whole husks. Single ingredient. Mix into dilute vegetable or fruit juice for palability if you don't like the taste in plain water.
If you let it sit for a couple of minutes afer mixing it thickens up, which might make swallowing harder but I have a (scientifically unfounded) feeling that it makes it more effective.
Start with 1 heaping tablespoon full in a glass of water/juice twice a day. Drink lots of water throughout the day. Do this together with a well balanced diet with lots of whole foods and vegetables and I hope you will feel much better soon.
Not trying to imply that you're lactose intolerant, but consider trying to give up dairy for a couple of weeks and see how you feel. Won't hurt you at all if nothing happens, but might give you surprising results.

My time to shine! I take 1 tbsp of this whole psyllium husk once a day. It reappears about 20 hours later so I time it. It's a lot different than those fine ground powders though. It will coagulate and turn into a mass in your stomach and then work its way through you like a 360* snowplow.
