@danilo1m I have very similar bowel problems and need to take Linzess 290, Lactulose, Dulcolax, and a stool softener in addition to extra virgin olive oil, water enemas to have a watery bowel movement passing pebble-like waste. I have bad diverticulosis, especially in the sigmoid colon, and have a tortuous colon that can only be scoped with a pediatric scope. CT scan of pelvis and abdomen shows restriction, not blockage, have internal hemorrhoids, nerve, pelvic floor issues, and urinary frequency issues. 83 yrs old trying to avoid life-threatening bowel surgery.

You Have My Sincerest Sympathy ... as I posted below, "We're Singing out of The Same Hymnal" ... I sometimes wonder ... the Medical Profession has made tremendous discoveries & advancements in the past 5-10-20+ years ... & yet this "Shitty Problem" seems to be one that goes on & on & ON! (Maybe because "It Stinks!").
When it begins to 'get me down', I just HAVE to take a little time, sit back, & Count My Blessings.

@william1543 So sorry to hear!
I also tried olive oil - upon going to sleep and/or waking - to no avail.
I think I'll try Magnesium Citrate liquid next, even though I know it is not for "regular/daily" use.
