Docusate - long term?
I have a major problem with incomplete evacuation - need to go to the loo many times a day and usually feel that something remains in the rectum. I`ve tried all the diets and pretty much all of the laxatives but the GP has suggested trying docusate again at a higher dose than I did before. I think her

Advice needed please
Hi all, I am wondering if you can offer any advice. My nearly 5 year old has been soiling for a year now. In the first instance we were prescribed movicol and senna as they said it was overflow. We continued using until he had a big movement and then stopped - the doctor said we could stop if he’s had

Update and ideas!
I thought I’d update you on my Weekly Taxol treatment and ask for some ideas to shift a problem I have! This may be long, please bear with! I’m about to have my 9th treatment, which means I’m halfway through. Overall, this regime has suited me well, apart from a couple of emotional wobbles as I got

Help with Sodium Pico sulphate and movicol to help with soiling
I’m looking for some help. My daughter (will be 5 in September)followed a disimpaction regime about 6/7 weeks ago. This was her first disimpaction. It worked well and has lessened her soiling greatly but we are now in a cycle of 5/6 days with no accidents and then about 4 days running of constant accidents

Still at stage 6
Need some advice. We are on day 9 of disimpaction and second day of 12 sachets of movicol but think my son is still only at stage 6 on the bristol stool chart. It is liquid but is quite thick. Does it need to be completely watery to be stage 7? Do I keep going at 12 sachets? He is still really uncomfortable

IBS and how to deal with it
It all started when I went out for a meal, came home and had really bad diarrhoea. Then the next day had stomach pains and felt like I needed to go but couldn’t. So I took senna, but this didn’t really help. I had stomach cramps, trouble going toilet, and during the night I could feel things moving in
