Problem with Chronic constipation

Thanks for the detailed reply. It is very hopeful to hear when you and others eventually find a good solution!
I haven't been diagnosed with IBS-C but it think it applies to me, no matter the cause of my obstipation whether it be tortuous colon, adhesions or overuse of laxatives. Actually the last few days have been ok maybe due to the very ripe fruit I have been eating. Did you try any dietary approaches to relieve your constipation?
How do you manage the side effects of the Amitiza, if there are any?

I did try to bulk up my fiber but nothing was working fruits did nothing the only thing I didn’t do was drink lots of water because I got choked every time I would try to chug it down! That was all due to my Jack Hammer Esophagus which I’ve had since I was born it’s a rare disorder of the lower esophageal sphincter I just had surgery for that last Sept 3rd I no longer get choked on anything and I can eat without worrying that I’m going to get choked. So the future is looking brighter for me!
