Thanks for your comments. Yes, I was aware of the laxative problem, but not the enema. I'll look into that. (So far, changing my diet hasn't worked.). Fortunately, I could finally get into the Mayo Clinic/Rochester in May for an "abundance" of tests. I'm hoping for some solutions....

Have you tried Metamucil, or generic psyllium fibre? I take a tablespoonful in a glass of water, followed immediately by another glass of plain water. Metamucil comes in flavours, but is expensive. Generic psyllium fibre can be found in health food stores, but only unflavoured. I prefer unflavoured, anyway.
