Magnesium capsules, tablets, lotion on your skin. It is probably all you need. Think of Milk of Magnesia. Magnesium is natural…

Does this really work for severe constipation? My husband is a cancer survivor of Neuroendocrine Tumors and he’s 2 years out from his Whipple surgery and now his intestines are all a mess will go sometimes 9 or 10 days with no BM and he was in the ER not too long ago because they thought he had a blockage somewhere because he’s been told that his cancer can come back with a vengeance! So they put him on a terrible regimen and it does not work! Miralax, Linzess, 3 stool softeners a day and nothing 😩 so we don’t know what else he can try? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you 😊

Magnesium citrate works, too well. Start out slowly with this to find the right dose. Otherwise, it feels like colonoscopy prep.

Also very effective is magnesium Citrate liquid in a bottle, Not pills. Works fast. But cheapest place to purchase is from pharmacies or Walmart..etc. About $4.00
Hope this helps
