Constipation is a pain in the a** - get it? Anyway, yes - IBD, chronic slow transverse constipation (which sometimes becomes 'no transverse' for 2 or 3 months). I have been hospitalized twice due to complications. I will not take any medication that even 'hints' that maybe, just maybe there's a slight chance it might cause - (perhaps on every other full moon) - constipation ... which is every single pain med as far as I can tell.
