Constipation `

I have been suffering more so with Constipation since the beginning of last month on and off. I can go 10/12 days with normal easy to pass stools then last 5 days they're mixed. Been drinking more and having nutribullets filled with veg and fruit, toast with avocado etc so my diet isn't terrible although I do eat some junk food. I have had very small amounts of blood twice with constipated stool, once when it all started early Sept (did take Amatrippilyn for 3 days) and the other 5 weeks ago. I have taken 4/5 Fit tests all negative and 2 Lacto/Ferratin tests both negative. I do drink a lot of milky tea maybe 8/10 cups a day, could this possibly cause it due to diluted milk etc? I am 37 bmi of 22.6 so not really big. The fact the constipation is so infrequent a good guess would be it isn't really anything serious?

Try aloe juice.

If you contact your GP you won't get much help I'm afraid constipation comes way down their list of priorities .All I got was a lecture on drinking more water and eating more fruit .

The chemist may be a better choice for self help.
