Laxido

I have slow transit bowel and think I may have backed up bowels again. However I am back on the Laxido again which has worked quickly on low doses and doing good amounts but in a lot of pain but more distressingly endless wipe after going which is effecting me going out. Has anybody experienced this and could it be overflow and need a higher dose ?

It could well be overflow. Perhaps you need a good clear out. Maybe a good dose of milk of magnesia. Not sure Laxido will help but we're all different. Hope resolved soon, I'm only too aware how distressing this can be.

Laxido is the worst i did a lot of research and saw a gastroenterologist and got him to put me on linaclotide game changer maybe worth a look,/ try.

I also have a VERY slow transit time. Basically caused by long term use of opioid analgesics ( severe back issues)

I take cosmocol and a senna nightly as the pain can be severe, with or without them.

To such an extent I can hardly eat for lower abdominal pain and nausea. But I’d rather not get constipated as have a large rectocele. I have to douche x3 daily or I just can’t go!

Theres no easy answer to all these problems!

Keep hydrated. Best wishes.
