Welcome back Joanne! I’m sorry you are still suffering without relief.
I’m taking Amitiza and Motegrity now. Some days good others not. Helps in the long run I think.
I got a CC letter this week with some interesting information.
It’s an implanted nerve stimulator called Medtronic’s InterStim.
This indication was for fecal incontinence so I don’t know if it would apply to you.
Check it out!

Hi, still not well. Motegrity was awful and Amitiza was too. I have such allergies to most meds. I don’t know if med itself or fillers. Someone needs to figure this out because I’m constantly sick or enduring horrible side effects. I don’t pass hard stools ever which amazes me with such long term constipation. It’s always tiny, soft or diarrhea and mostly nothing for weeks. I do not have incontinence at all. It’s also never as far as my rectum. It must take forever to get there because I’ve been taught to check myself and clear the way but never ever gets that far. I have had many many tests but it’s time to backtrack and do more but my Gastro doesn’t agree. I did smart pill but asked to swallow the camera in case something is missed in small bowel but my doctor thinks I’ve had all the tests since August 2020 that conclude, I have severe digestive motility issues. I see her Friday and I feel she will mention surgery. I won’t do it because I have had BM so I’m keeping my colon.
Thanks…Joanne
