I agree with the no fiber approach. Only made me worse too!
When things are real tough for me, I make what I call my prune juice cocktail which includes prune juice mixed with Milk or Magnesia. Several nights a week I take 2 stool softeners with a glass of prune juice.
Also, my gastro doc prescribes Trulance for me. This Rx med is powerful!

Good to know about Trulance, I may need it someday. I had only heard of Linzess.
The prune juice sounds like a great option, but I have other gastro issues and cannot tolerate it.
As for Milk of Magnesia, I should try it. Right now I take Hilma Constipation Relief -- Magnesium Citrate -- gentle, not strong. I may be ready for something like MofM, so thanks for the reminder!
