Hi all, first off thanks to all that replied to my "gabapentin" post. Just wanted to update you all, seen gp this morning and she's happy for me to come off the gabapentin.

Gabapentin and Yasmin
Hello, Has anyone been on both pills above and experienced Constipation? It's been a struggle to even go once a day and my stomach hurts. I started taking both pills around the same time. I've been like this for about nearly 4 weeks.

Stroke following DBS surgery.
Dr. does not want to activate her
DBS
until she is finished with therapy. Has anyone ever experienced this? It is a "catch 22" and extremely frustrating.

Celevac
Does anyone have any experience of Celevac for constipation? I need a bulk laxative and fibogel is no good for me. Normacol gives me cramps and so does linseed. Magnesium is horrible! I have bought some Celevac but am wary of using it.
