aww sweet not good. drunk loads of water and orange juice. laxatives ok for short term but will make your bowels lazy if taken for long periods, so vicious circle. lactulose good but gentle take few days to really get going but is safe, fybogel safe and good when used with plenty of water, because it works by bulking up the 'poo' so the body can contract and move it out better, not enough water will bung you up more and could be dangerous. suppositories fab for immediate relief but can be bit pain ful as they cause the muscles to contract.
senna etc cause the bowels to contract, simple.
good luck babe, all availavle on prescription, see your doc, hope this was some help.
ooh and movicol great stuff esp those on it long term but get on script as can be expensive
