Thx Oronogo for your advise. I do eat prunes from time to time, but never warm. My pelvic floor therapist recommended a warm beverage in the am. Warm prune juice might help. Thx again.

Hello @susan62 and @oronogo

I have found that warm foods/liquids work much better for constipation than cold foods or beverages. When I take Miralax I mix it in coffee or cocoa. I also purchased pureed prunes (baby food containers) and warm them before having them at bedtime. It takes a lot of different treatments to keep constipation at-bay when you have Parkinson's. Hope some of these ideas help.
