Amanda,
this may sound silly but some foods may help you with this problem.
i have found that pinto beans help me.
i dont eat them regularly but when i do,,,,,i go.
very interesting topic especially when a lot of things we take for relief or to
treet our symptoms cause constipation which can cause multiple aggravations.
prayers,,,

I don't write very often, and I normally wouldn't talk to people about
something so personal, but I don't know who else to ask. I have been having
problems with constipation for a long time -- and it is only getting worse. As
of right now I have been unable to go to the bathroom for five days. I have
been taking Senokot and Miralax, plus I have been prescribed Lactulose by my
neurologist. I take magnesium citrate pretty often, but it really makes me
miserable when I take it. My legs get really tight and shake uncontrollably
from being dehydrated. My stomach actually hurts today and I'm normally don't
feel pain there. I have been to doctors and they were no help. It seems like
they just take my money and run because they don't have the answer. When I
went to the gynecologist she actually asked me why I thought I needed to have a
Pap smear even though I told her I hadn't had one in over two years. She just
didn't want to deal with me
because I cannot stand up. I get this from a lot of doctors -- it seems like
nobody wants to deal with me. I couldn't even find a regular family doctor-- a
receptionist at one of the doctors offices I called actually told me that she
didn't think the doctors there would be able to handle my case. She said that
if I was a regular person that was just dealing with colds and other "normal"
illnesses, that would be fine, but she didn't think they would know what to do
to help me. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could take to help me
with this situation? I am getting very desperate for some relief!
Thank you,
Amanda Diskey
