I use to have the same problem with the pain meds but I can’t do without them so I found something that helps me a lot called Psyllium husks caps , I take 4 to 5 a day plus I eat a dried prune every night plus a 1 probiotic every night and it has solved that problem ! I suffered for a long time before I finally got it figured out, if I happen to get consulates again I’ll just take some sting laxative

Nothing has worked for my chronic constipation. I only produce "pellets" with stool softeners. When I was on pain meds prescribed Linzess and Movantik specifically for opioid induced constipation. Did not work. A nurse at pain clinic told me to take Senna, a stimulant laxative. I take every Sunday. Hate living like this..this is no way to live. Fiber only makes things worse for me, have tried it all..including flaxseed, Probiotics with BB-12, VSL 3. Nothing. Can you please tell me what probiotic you take? Please don't tell me to "take Miralax" there is an black box warning on it on FDA website..It will soon be taken off market I think. It makes me cramp too much..
