Hello,
Metamucil should not cause this problem. It sounds like you have an infection or an obstruction. You need to see a doctor as soon as possible to find the cause.
Metamucil can cause blockages if you do not take it with at least 8 oz of water. It must be taken with lots of water and usually only once a day is best. If it is taken this way it should be safe.
Regards
