Hi I suffered terribly after ET, I asked Diane the nurse on here and this is what she said: The drug to avoid is “senna” (Senokot) or similar containing that ingredient. Fybogel swells when it comes into contact with fluid in the intestines and therefore increases the volume of the faeces. It is not absorbed into the body. The increased faeces in the bowel stimulates the muscles in the walls of the bowel to push the contents of the bowel along, which helps relieve constipation. I have always recommended Fybogel like your GP because it is NOT absorbed by the body. Like your GP extra water, prunes, figs and apricots can also help. If you’re worried, speak with your GP again
