Yes I have tried all that to not avail. I believe it’s bc I’m on Lyrica also. Both slow down nerve transmission speed and that includes nerves that have to do with bowel motility. I’m just using sm amt of cannabis gummy at bedtime but it still constipates over the next few days. I’ve just started drinking Marshmellow loose tea which instructions say should steep in warm water for three hrs. And served warm not hot. The next day I stew two prunes and they work.
Fiber makes my constipation worse I found, because the nerves do not respond to it.

Some predicament you’re in. I’ve not heard of marshmallow tea but know of marshmallow root tea. If the same thing caution if you’re a diabetic as it is known to lower blood sugar and can interfere with absorption of drugs by GI system. Hope you find relief.
