Hi, I've been suffering with constipation for a few years, probably because of pills I take for chronic pain. I started laxido, 2 sachets a day a few weeks ago. Worked well at first although quite loose. However for last 5 days its like water! Struggling to eat. Tummy ache, cramps etc. Stopped sachets when the watery stuff started but its still going on. Should I be worried or is this normal. After long term constipation only going once or twice every couple of weeks to stuck on the toilet for last 5 days seems a bit extreme. Any advice appreciated xx

It’s hard to get it right . I take laxido but maybe try taking one just at night time . As it’s so hard to see a doctor at the minute .but if it makes you feel ill I would phone doctor for help .
I take this everyday at first I had to take 2 one day , then 3 , then 4 then when I finally went I had Diarrhea for 2 weeks !! I stopped taking it until it had stopped as it’s hard to get the dose right . I take just 1 sachet in the evening and I take 1 scoop optifibre midday it’s worked for me x

Thankyou, poor you, 2 weeks! 1 week was bad enough! I've taken 1 last night as I had tummy ache but no diareah. Im going to try 1 every evening and see how I go x
