Hi prue1956,

I think you need to give us a bit more info before we can come up with anything helpful, e.g. do you have true constipation with infrequent, hard, dry stools or do you have a bm, but feel you haven't comletely evacuated your bowel? What do you currently do about the problem? Which rib do you mean? etc etc.

Hi

thankyou for your reply .....yes im constipated and must admit its like rabbit pellets sometimes,the fluttering i get is just under my right breast or a slight pulse like feeling but no pain ☺

in reply to prue1956

Do you take laxatives or eat a diet designed to help with constipation and what did your doctor advise?

I've no idea what the twitching/fluttering is that you describe, but it might sound familiar to someone else on here.

Not what you're looking for?
