Chronic constipation
For the past year or so my rib cage area is like really painful the other day I had a small backache that radiated around to the front and I went to ER and they discovered which I have had problems before that I had backed up constipation so I have been taking MiraLAX Fiber supplement magnesium citrate stool softener, and I still have not evacuated like I should have a gastrologist a new one in a month. I hope I don’t explode before the month is over. Any suggestions out there?

Shelley, I finally found your original post and realize my recent post with hopes of you "feeling better nowadays" seems unlikely. I truly hope there is a doctor somewhere that can help you. I am miserable but at no level that you must be feeling. Why is it so hard to get help for this problem? A good gastroenterologist seems impossible to find. They are readily available for endoscopies and colonoscopies but once those are done, I feel like they block my calls😭 I'm at my wits I'm just waiting for basic help. You must be ready to kill someone!😢❤️
It doesn’t say it’s organic but it does say natural and unsweetened. Thank you for the next bottle I will have my husband get it at Walmart.
@carolinlv and @shelleyw I guess there is more money to be made in colonoscopies and endoscopies than in office consults. Medical care has become all about money - one may as well remove the word “care” associated with “Medical”.
开塞露 is a traditional medicine, super cheap but very effective.
Also did you ever try boil vegetable + water (1:3) for like carrot, onion, tomato, cabbage for 20 mins and drink one cup in the morning, one cup in the
evening? The point is for people with digestive issue, cooked veggies is better than raw veggies to absorb.
I hope you best of luck!

Tried these with no luck☹️ thank you though. I appreciate any help offered and will give your veggie suggestion a try for sure!
I am certain of that, especially after looking at the paid information received from my providers. Thankfully, we have Medicare and TRICARE because my husband was military for 22 years. I can’t imagine fending off some of these bills without it. Of course, I also don’t understand how they escalate the numbers when they’re charging insurance versus getting a co-pay from an individual. I understand they have to make their money, but all of the specialists seem to become invisible and impossible to get in touch with unless you have certain requests of them. I don’t know when answering machines for appointments became a thing. And then you’re at their whim for a callback.
No problem Carol. As veggi is natural so It may take time to function. Also pls try to reduce stress , eat the right food, exercise, add probiotics. Best luck! 🙂
I think that stress thing is easier said than done. That’s something I’m working on right now! I eat the right foods, I exercise with a 30 minute walk daily if the weather is under 100°. We’ve been teetering between 113° and 118 here in Las Vegas so walking is not too easy right now. In lieu of that, it’s laps around Costco in Walmart😂 Also, at 72 years of age, and with type two rosacea, I have to stay out of the heat and the sun whenever possible. Probiotics do not make my stomach happy at all so I get them through kefir and fermented foods instead. Your suggestions are all excellent and I think I’ve kicked most of the boxes. If I could consistently handle stress better and exercise a little more regularly, then at least I would be able to say I’ve done everything I could. Thank you again for your help!
@helen1000 can I use other vegetables instead of carrot, tomato and … ugh! Cabbage …?
