You may want to discuss your suspicion of digestive enzyme insufficiency with your gastroenterologist. They can test to determine if this is accurate or not. I have microscopic colitis and extremely low pancreatic enzymes and supplementing the enzymes is a total game changer!

Good to know about that colitis condition, and yes, I am consulting with a gastro doctor who has a pancreas sub-specialty. He is also listed on Castle and Connally. Thank you!

That’s interesting. I also have microscopic colitis. I didn’t have constipation after diagnosis and budesonide -treatment. But about 4 months later I had lung surgery and the narcotics in the hospital did a number on my colon that ultimately required a fleet suppository.
And it’s never been the same. I was also put on a statin and now I’m constipated all the time. I think I should discuss these enzymes with my GI doc.

I take artichoke capsules that really help with constipation.
