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

Colonoscopy report
She said it'll only be a flexible sigmoidoscopy so the
laxatives
are not so strong. Some consolation. I have to wait 6 weeks for the biopsy results, but the sites were random because it all looked normal. It's to check for microscopic colitis. I am pleased though that I didn't have sedation.

Can't tolerate Levothyroxine
Already on
laxatives
for another med and even increasing the dose of these did not help the levo constipation. Eltroxin not cause dizziness by the time the painful constipation started, but I suspect it would have if I'd carried on.

Laxatives that don't cause nausea?
Hello I am suffering from constipation and just wondering what
laxatives
are least likely to cause nausea? I'm having problems with my stomach I'm getting an endoscopy in a month I'm feeling nauseous almost all the time and having problems going to the toilet.

New here with another question: do you ever feel extra sick when doing the pre colonoscopy stuff to get rid of whatever is in the gut?
I have major phobia of vomiting and I’m scared to take these
laxatives
that they give you but I know I’ll need to do a colonoscopy some day (or do I?). So I wondered if it’s truly so bad?? Please share your experience. Thank you

constipation
i had an xray a few weeks back which revealed i had a hugely loaded bowel, as i only had a bowel movement once or twice a week and it was very hard/painful to pass. ive started
laxatives
(dulcolax) as prescribed by my doctor and they seemed to work for a few days, meaning i had a lot of bowel movements

unending soft stool cause?
I try
laxatives
but in all honesty it comes back worse when I do. I have multiple orange soft stools throughout the day sometimes huge amounts, It’s all the more concerning because I eat so little. One doctor says I have IBS C because on the chart it looks like hardened stool.

is it ibs or something else
Before you tell me to try
laxatives
or diets , I’ve tried it all and NOTHING works. No
laxatives
work at all . I use the bathroom probably once a month and other days throughout the week just a tiny bit will come but it’s never complete and it’s so little.

Day four
A meat or fish grilled not fried, usually with garlic, cabbage, carrots and sweet potato and you guessed it all washed down with a cup of tea with 2
laxatives
. A cup of tea for morning and afternoon break and again 2 hours before bed. Everything is in small amounts apart from the cup of tea.
