Just wondering if anyone has advice for very severe constipation. I am still suffering this even after trying just about every Peat-friend suggestion (cascara, anti-histamines, cyproheptadine, magnesium, dried prunes, dates, and everything else).
My issue is so severe now it is causing further up hemorrhoids and bleeding everytime I go. Sometimes there is mucus (or pus). I have seen GI. Been diagnosed with IBS-C and diverticulitis. I have been perscribed antispasmodics, laxatives. Nothing is really helping to make me regular and to soften my stool consistently. It seems I am actually getting worse too I also have avoided wheat for some time, but still eat rice occassionally. Over all
I eat pretty clean. Cheese, milk, butter, fruit (peeled, cooked), well cooked potatoes with butter, liver, oysters, eggs, shellfish, some chocolate and corn tortilla/polenta occassionally. I started taking NDT as I had a bad result with cynomel (anxiety). Take vitamin E on and off as well as K2. Recently I started drinking apple juice. I also have been drinking coffee for years, even pre-Peat. Anyone have any insight as to why my body seems to be stealing water from my waste?
I am desperate and open to any and all suggestions at this point. I just really would like the daily bleeding to stop. Senna tea helps me go but with cramps and still the stool is hard and there is blood. Sorry for tmi.
