Anyone else have severe constipation?

Thank you very much for the advice, I'll have to look into this.
I strain every single time I go, and I believe the last couple of times I have actually hurt myself.
Right now I'm experiencing symptoms of low hemoglobin count, I walk a few feet and start feeling light headed and can't seem to inhale enough oxygen, and my legs feel like they weigh a ton.
I have fallen a couple of times already, so I think I'm going to get to the doctor some how, and have a blood test taken.
I think I may have tore something while straining, that's the only reason I brought it up.

I also take opioids and the constipation is awful. I have colitis on top of painful back problems and have never had a problems going, actually the opposite. I didn't go anywhere without checking where the bathroom was but after being on pain meds the opposite is now the problem. I take Colace every morning and it has made a world of difference. I have tried Miralax and it didn't work for me. Colace is very gentle to where you don't need to go running for a bathroom when it decides to work. Good luck and hope you find relief soon.
