Linaclotide second post

Well there is me worrying about this drug holding me back from doing things as it's like dynamite.

The drug has not worked. It's not making me go to the toilet to clear the loading . So now I'm worried as I don't want to end back in hospital. My constipation is severe. The only thing that does work is kean prep but it's 5 litres of horrible liquid to drink. That's why I go into hospital to have it through a nose feed.

Anyone else with chronic constipation? What works for you?

Many thanks

For me I use plain old glycerin liquid and use an oral stringe to administor between 5-15mls up the bum. Hold for as long as possible, I too suffer chronic IBS constipatio. Ever since doing this I haven't been to hospital.
