constipation
13 and been struggling with constipation on and off for months.
Since april I’ve had to use Microlax 3 times, and it always works, but I really hate using it because it’s uncomfortable.
Right now I’m traveling and I’m in a camper, so using the bathroom is really difficult.2 days ago I only passed a small amount of hard stool, didn’t feel fully emptied(which isnt very uncommon for me for the last 2weeks) ,also dont have the urge to go, and today I mostly just feel very full and bloated. I can still pass gas, my stomach isn’t that hard, and I don’t have vomiting, but it feels heavy even though I haven’t eaten much. The doctor here gave me an osmotic laxative syrup (Osmolak), but I’m worried because it feels like the hard stool is already low down.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did the osmotic laxative end up working, or did you still need something like Microlax? I’m also in a calorie deficit, so I’m wondering if that could be making my constipation worse.
Any advice or similar experiences would really helpppp
thanks
