Magnesium!

Magnesium citrate certainly "gets things moving" but for me it's usually very harsh and can result in diarrhea, stomach pain and cramping. Maybe there is a low dose that works without these side effects. I just haven't found it.

That said, I'd certainly bring it up with a GI Dr. to see if it is possible to use in certain situations, and at what dose.

All the best to everyone who has to deal with this mystifying and frustrating condition, known as CIC.
