Darn constipation

[sproutly2003]

I've had a few bouts of bad constipation, so make extra sure I'm eating and drinking right, yet I'm still suffering. I take daily lactulose also, bit to no avail. I've got such bad stomach and backache with it. I don't know what else I can do other than a healthy, fibrous diet, movement and fluids, along with the lactulose.

I'm sorry you're constipated. I've been taking heartburn meds, Tums, Mylanta and i didn't go for 3 days. I was so uncomfortable and then they told me that I might want to up my water intake while I'm taking this stuff it may cause constipation. Thanks for letting me know. I've just been drinking a lot of water, eating 100 calorie popcorn bags, fruit and veggies. I'm lucky to go once a day and it's not always that satisfying. Sorry I'm no help, but you're not alone. I hope you feel better
