I had the exact same diagnosis after my last colonoscopy two years ago. Never even spoke to the doctor after the procedure.I do have issues with occasional cramping. I have found that Metamucil and a cup of coffee in the morning works for me, but I never had a issue with constipation yet. In fact the opposite occasionally, not diarrhea but three to four bowel movements a day.

Over the past year or so I've had issues with being gassy, bloated and often constipation. I had attributed the gas and bloating to menopause. There are times when I go once a day and others we I will go up to 4 days before finally having a bowel movement. I had already started drinking a tea called smooth move that has a gentle laxative effect that seems to keep me a bit more regular.
