Hello @rashida,

I'm glad that you posted again. Given the many abdominal surgeries, your success in using psyllium fiber every day is great and I'm glad that it is providing relief from constipation.

You mentioned that Kegel exercises create more pain. Have you discussed this with your doctor?

@hopeful33250 - doctors can’t figure that out. Any form of exercise - even gentle stretches - can leave me in pain for weeks sometimes. I guess it’s due to fibromyalgia. 🤷🏼‍♀️

After blood tests, ultrasounds, CT scan some years ago (contrast dye of which gave mean allergic reaction), I’ve just given up and live with my pain. I have pretty much got used to being in pain. Tried every kind of pain medication - OTC, prescription, naturop, etc. Some work for a few days then stop working.
