I have recently gone wheat dairy and gluten free I am still having lots of fruit and veg and high fibre but am so constipated to the point it has put a small tear in my bum...sorry for being graphic. It is like going to toilet through knives and inside is sore....I think my endo is back as I have sharp pelvic pain on one side also....I am waiting for my gynae app to come through...has anyone else experienced this and got any advice as to how to get it sorted?

Hi sorry to hear what you're going through. I've had problems with constipation for years and have a similar diet to yours. The thing I've found helps the most is daily multi vitamins and a high strength vitamin C supplement too. This seems to help keep everything moving! Lindle's post below id full of good advice too. I hope you manage to get it sorted soon. Good luck! xx

Thank you, I found your symptoms post really useful...my 3rd lap was by a endo specialist and he said the first two weren't done properly. The pill I was on was dianette and was told not to stay on it but consultant used to say it was fine after 2yrs I thought I would take a break as wanted to feel normal again...big mistake as pain and symptoms ever since....luckily seeing endo consultant in 3 weeks so hoping 18mths of pain and I may get answer x
