Guest guest Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 Hey Mad - I'm new too but.....I'm only 3 weeks post-op but have fought chronic constipation all my life. WLS did not help - I do not have dumping syndrome. I've tried Senekot in the past and also experienced pain - the psyllium (misspelled, I know) in it causes bubbles and gas pain. At any rate, something else you may want to try is a product called Swiss Kriss - I've used it for years. I had to take double the dose for 3 years and was extremely concerned that I was " addicted " to laxatives but eventually I played with the dosage and different juices and the every day constipation went away - I still take about 1 pill 2-3 times per week with my morning vitamins. I promise you, I tried EVERYTHING too - every household remedy I heard. To this day, if I do not drink at least 1 cup of juice, I'm constipated and bloated. You can get this at any health food store like GNC. Hope this may help you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
