Diverticulum Problem
And also are there any immediate

I could take if I got desperate. Hope you all have a good Christmas.

Son soiling
He's been given
laxatives
to make the experience easier but I feel like we have gone massively backwards. We have previously tried poo presents where he unwrapped a small toy car each time he pooed in the correct place, reward charts, consequences for pooing pants eg no I pad.

Constipation
Some background: Mom has been battling constipation for years at this point, we have been throwing so many softeners,
laxatives
... you name it, we have given it to her regularly and in large doses and even with all of that, her stool is so huge and so hard, you could use it as an American football.

Colon hydrotherapy
My constipation has reached new levels since this cleanse so I’ve taken
laxatives
for 3 days and I’m still not going! It’s been 3 weeks since the cleanse. I'm going back to the GP in the morning to request a colonoscopy as I am concerned.

Management Advice Endo & Adeno stage4
Add to greek yogurt and banana if you don't want muffins
Laxatives
are usually too strong Dulcosate simply keeps the stools hydrated which makes it easier to pass. Check with Dr but I take 5 tablets daily until I am no longer constipated.

Paniking
On new years day I was taken to hospital by paramedics, who I think thought I was having a heart attack; my blood pressure was very high (its normally too low) and there was something in a blood test that they were concerned about. 9 hours later, I was sent home fro A n E with
laxatives

Incomplete evacuation and straining
I resort to Movicol and herbal
laxatives
once or twice a week. Has anyone any useful tips from experience about how they overcame straining? It's so hard to think of other things with terrible abdominal pain which disappears instantly if I manage to have a bowel movement.

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
.

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.

Laxatives for constipation
What do you use? The gp has just changed me from laxido to fybogel mebeverine. I've taken half a sachet and the pain is horrendous. It is causing awful cramps. I'm not sure what to do as I can't carry on with the constipation. I tried upping the fibre and that did the same and aggrevated the symptoms

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

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.

bleeding in stool and when wiping
Hey I’m 44, for about 13 years I have had IBS C (did have a sigmoidoscopy to rule out anything sinister) and I rely on
laxatives
to have a BM.

soft stool constipation
A recent CT study showed large amounts of stool throughout the colon so, as expected, I was prescribed
laxatives
. But this is not putting my condition into context. I cannot stop having bowel movements and the colon is full because it seems to fill up with stool throughout the day.
