@mojo244
I have severe constipation which has been going on for 5 or 6 years. NOTHING has worked for me except magnesium citrate. After that cleans me out, I go 3-4 weeks with no bm, then I use mag cite again. In other words, I cannot have a bm on my own. Getting ready to change gastroenterologist for the 3rd time. I am so tired of this and worried too.

@finny4606 Wow. I am so glad something works for you, but 3-4 weeks is so long (as you know!).
Have you had any testing that has shown anything (slow motility, manometry, etc)? Any diagnoses?

@finny4606 DANG, 3-4 weeks!!! You have got to be miserable? I’m worried when I go 3-4 DAYS without a BM!
After 3-4 days the pain upon exit is horrible, I can’t imagine how 3-4 weeks is. I really feel sorry for you!
