Constipation of about a week, nothing is helping at all, my stomach is really expanded/distended forward and uncomfortable. I was able to go some today, but it really didn't help and if I try to go more my stomach will just hurt. I can't eat a lot at a time because my stomach will just hurt and puff out even more. The medication I'm taking, lactulose, isn't doing anything either. I took 1 tbsp this morning, 2 yesterday evening, 1 that morning and the same the day before (I'd upped the dose from two in the morning). I need immediate relief. I need something natural and guaranteed to just blow through my GI tract...any help?
What doesn't work: hot water, water in mass amounts (stomach will just be so full I can't eat), fiber (fruits, grain, etc), meds, suppositories have never worked for me, oils (haven't tried Castor), soaks in the tub, going for walks, sitting on the toilet, everything else.
What foods will just really "blow through" or whatever? I need something, like, PRONTO!
