Have you tried linzess? Linzess and miralax were what finally got my bowels moving years ago. Luckily I was able to eventually get off of it but I do have to take magnesium, drink a gallon of water everyday, and drink prune juice twice a day. Also potatoes make the constipation worse for me so maybe it’s the same for you or you have another food that may make it worse.
Wishing you all the best!

I had a long (2 months?) bout of being off, with no solid stools.I believe it was stress related, but I do have a redundant colon. Was x-rayed, badly impacted, lots of miralax, several rounds,etc. Very stubborn. Put on LInzess, really disliked it--urgency, stomach pain, I thought weird smell, maybe just me. Anyway, I just stopped taking it. My main problem is bloat, so I guess I'm lucky, but I do hate it. AM doing the water, really switched up diet to fiber and plant based, stricter about exercise,take culturelle and gas-x. If anyone has similar and has found an answer, let me know!
