@jimhd Have adhesive Arachnoiditis, long time & it's extremely awful I have severe pain from top of my neck down my entire spinal cord. I am fused from C3 thru my sacrum. I seem to be resistant to oxycodone. I get 10 MG every 6 hours. It really has MINIMAL affect. It's progressive & has destroyed last 26 plus years. Was completely paralyzed & I have total numbness & severe paresthesia down both legs ( from knee to toes) Also, now have bowel Incontinence ( as many as 7 to 8 times a day. My kidneys are poor & i am now broke & on Medicare & Medicaid. Had an RN BS & also masters in Health Care Administration Any suggestions on Bowel, severe constipation?? alternating with incontinence ? Plus I'm stuck , sometimes, having multiple Accidents & my fused spine, makes anything to do with this, a nightmare. I've got Relistor (for opioid induced constipation. Take MiraLAX & drink tons of water & etc... Because of adhesive Arachnoiditis, nothing works.. My fusion, makes it very hard, but i use enemas too I had wanted to do trial of pain pump. But i have severe rotator cuff issues, need a new shoulder etc... Any advice for relief constipation? Have tried lot's OTC

@laurenseavertson789 hi there I have been prescribed with Mobantik which works well for me

@laurenseavertson789 have you tried Mobantik?

@laurenseavertson789 I've been having diarrhea for the past month or two, so I haven't been taking Lactulose, also known as General and other names. Constipation is miserable. It's put me in the hospital several times and was the reason for 4 surgeries. Anytime I have pain in my stomach, I start worrying. Every ten years I have surgery for adhesions from abdominal surgeries. That's a horrible thing to go through.

I imagine you've tried the diet approaches to constipation. I hope you find relief soon.
