One period of my life I suffered from constipation. I tried everything, and the only thing that worked was eating a lot of fresh citrus. Oranges are the most effective, but you have an opioid induced issue and that can really block your system. Stay away from rice which can make matters worse.

@barbaradh thank you for the suggestion of eating oranges! And they work! Been eating one for two days (in addition to my usual daily dose of Metamucil), and finally regular the past two days!
I had been eating prunes but not enjoying that because I don’t like dried fruit, and also because the prunes were not only very sweet but sticking between my teeth, requiring more frequent flossing. I like the oranges remedy better!
