Constipation and Kidney Failure. Does anyone have any advice, or ideas about the management of chronic constipation in Peritoneal Dialysis.

I am a PD patient on four daily fluid exchanges. Since my last PD catheter was fitted in Feb14, I have been diagnosed with gastro-paresis. Constipation is chronic and my Bowel has slowed down to hardly function at all, only going every four days, even with lactulose, docusate, movicol, senna! I am getting extremely paranoid about it. I am concerned there is something seriously wrong. What should I do? They are now carrying out an X-Ray. What else in terms of investigations and treatments can be tried?

Hello there, I'm just looking through some of these posts and noticed there wasn't any replies. Did it all work out ok in the end? I am about to go on PD and quite concerned about this particular subject as even now I'm not very regular at all.....
