The GP prescribed various
laxatives
, they help but do not cure. I am now spending about 3 hours a day on the toilet. Sometimes it interrupts my sleep as I think I have emptied my bowel, go to bed and then 10 minutes later want to go again.

Should I tell my rheumatologist?
After 11 hours I was sent home with
laxatives
- I have diverticulitis and it was suggested I was having a flare and toldif I noticed my eyes turning yellow to go straight back. I went home but a week later still didn't feel right and contacted my GP.

Frustrated...
I was sent home with some
laxatives
and told to go see my GP if it got any worse... I made an appointment anyway, as I just felt something wasn't right. At the appointment he was shocked that they'd let me home as my liver function test showed that a particular enzyme was double what it should be.

can laxatives make constipation worse?
Osmotic
laxatives
also draw water into the colon so my concern is I’m making the build of stool worse. It certainly feels that way. Does anyone have similar symptoms and can advise on different ways to reduce the stool burden and limit the soft stool build up? Thank you

Rectal pain and poo talk (hopefully not too much info) 💩
Nothing seems to provide me any relief other than
laxatives
. I feel at a bit of a loss - I’ve been round and round in circles at my GP over the past year, but I’m holding out hope that my excision surgery will improve my symptoms.

Any tips on going to toilet after - did you use regular
laxatives
! What sort of painkillers were you given and did you have to buy any more than what hospital gave you? How did you find returning to exercise and work (I have an active job and involved driving) ?

Postive Qfit test
I do suffer from chronic constipation and do have to strain even taking
laxatives
- laxido. I attended another GP on Monday and he did a rectal exam and he found a small external heomorrid which might be a cause. Could the hermoid be a cause.

Has anyone else struggled after catheter?
I've got
laxatives
, and they've told me it's important I'm not constipated for too long. I guess the most important thing to do is relax and let nature take its course, but it's hard when you're worried about it!

Why do I keep having alternating IBS-D and IBS-C?
However after the 'failed' colonoscopy my IBS has taken a drastic turn which I believe to be because of the 'prep' for the colonoscopy ie the
laxatives
.

New results…
range at that time, thankfully the GP said “no action” so I have carried on with 75mcg (have been having my usual brands - no issues) Things that improved on 75mcg (been on that dose since Sept 2023) = 1) Tinnitus pretty much completely gone 2) Severe constipation much improved and not needed any

Advice please
Struggling with bowel symptoms too, diarrhoea in the morning and constipated by the evening (I take regular
laxatives
to help with constipation from the strong pain relief). Bowel movements are painful and I often bleed from the front afterwards.
