@A MyChronicPainTeam Member hello how are you doing Marty I do feel like I have no energy whatsoever when I get constipated - which I do get quite often as I am taking Antidepressants for anxiety and depression daily and I asked for some ideas concerning how to get some normal bowel movements and I have started taking Osmolax (Osmatic Laxative which is an effective relief if constipation snd the prescription includes 2 x 510 grams of the medication for $6.70 total!

You need to save some of that stuff you have to drink for a colonoscopy. Then when constipated, a small glass should uncorked you in 15 minutes. But make sure if you drink it you've got nothing planned for a few hours.

@A MyChronicPainTeam Member you're too funny! I'm finding when I take a walk it works well! Walking helps so many issues.

Hi @A MyChronicPainTeam Member....When the road to relief occasionally encounters a traffic jam I find Restoralax works pretty well as it's not a laxative, it just adds some hydration to your bowels so things start moving again. I hope you're doing well. Hang in there..I figure it's like the saying what goes up must come down and what goes in must come out...lol...Take care...GBU
