It's encouraging to hear there is something out there that works for tortuous colon peeps like us. Good for you that you keep up the good fight! This along with Motegrity is in my back pocket of options. Thank you for sharing your experience with Lactulouse.

Ultimate fibre helped me for a long time better than Lactulose and prunalex and coloxil senna and all the other fibres and homeopathics and what not. Its quite powerful. I used dulcolax occasionally and colonic hydrotherapy. Then my surgeon told me to use dulcolax daily - I was afraid my body would get dependant and it did. It responds to nothing else now; its painful and Im looking at surgery. I tried Motegrity too and capsuled magnesium....didnt work. They might have earlier though. who knows
I want to ask my surgeon not to recommend using dulcolax daily to other people because it made things heaps worse for me and I would advise anyone who uses it to try minimize it and alternate with other things. We re all different of course as to how we respond to things.
If I seem short in my responses - apologies. I really appreciate this space and everyone's sharing. I find I have very little energy to talk about this and to research it and so on, as it already takes up more energy than I have 🙂 x
