I've dealt with this for about a year, combined with being unable to urinate and having muscle spasms after eating. PCP gave me Magnesium Oxide, which I take two per day, morning and evening. He said I could take four, if needed. Mirilax stirred into water--I needed at least a tall glass in the morning to get things started. It is not grainy nor does it have a taste. Add an apple to your daily diet. So on to PT. Working on core exercises, as well as several that involve twisting in a seated position, sit to stands with stomach held in, clamshells, yoga cat/cow/child/cobra. But the big thing was that I was not eating enough to push through and it was getting stuck, as well as needing to drink more. And, the best help was getting a stool to keep knees higher than the seat and the Moo and Ahh movement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDk93cvZAuk
