Extremely Bad constipation issue, can anybody PLEASE help me?
Right before christmas I took laxatives so I could try to use the bathroom, Nothing happened the next morning, which was unusual because they usually help.
Then the next day I took two more, thinking it would definitely work now.
Then they didnt. So i went to my gastronologist and he put me on Amitiza, that was on christmas eve, so i took those that day and christmas day, still nothing.
So i continues with the medication, while taking 2 more laxatives, By this time I had taken over 6 different constipation reliefes. ( amitiza and laxatives.)
The day after christmas nothing.
Sunday-nothing.
Monyday- took more stool softeners. Nothing
Yesterday, called my doctor back, he told me to double up on the meds,
And then today. Still nothing.
More then 10 laxatives in my system in over a week, and over 10 amitizas and NOTHING.
Ive drank ALOT ALOT of water, ive eaten apples, tooken fiber supplements, drank juice,
Basically did everything one could do…
I told my mom about it and she didnt really say anything. I love how people act when you tell them you have IBS, they think your weird and unusual and they dont even care.
My skin is breaking out like crazy, it looks like im 4 months pregnant….
Idk what too do now. Dr. doesnt understand, No foods will help.
This is my last resort, to talk to the people.
Can anyone give me any suggestions? I am dying here.

Best Answer – Chosen by Voters Find another doctor quickly. This one sounds irresponsible.As others have said, take an enema. Fleet enemas work great. They also make glycerin suppositories, but I don't know if you want to try that or not.
You should go back to the doctor to actually help you instead of sending you away with laxatives which evidently don't even work. It's extremely irresponsible for the doctor to do that. You could ask for another doctor, seeing as your current one is being an idiot.
May need an enema. After that a laxative called Miralax every night. Fiber, fluid, exercise. Miralax is non habit forming meaning that your bowels will not become dependent on them which can sometimes happen and lead to bigger problems.
I agree – it's better to use enemas and suppositories as appropriate than these cocktails of oral laxatives which could damage the intestines if used constantly for a long period of time.
Melynda, This is totally unacceptable for the doc. to keep telling you to take more laxatives with no results, something that works for me is a enemas I know nobody likes them but you need very badly to have a bm,try the fleets enema and hold it in as long as possible, if you don't already have a bowel obstruction your going to if you don't go to the bathroom, you might as well have enemas mason hand. Hope this helps when you finally get relived take softeners daily basis. Good Luck Rita V Source(s): Retired Nurse
