    I am like that literally 24/7 (i can go like 2 weeks without going to the loo anyway) so i take Ducolax i think there called, there in a green and silver box, its the ONLY thing i find that works, but make sure you drink at least 2 pnts of water with and after as that reallly helps :) xxxx

    When does the bloating stop? Dont think i can take much more, my poor tummy!!! Im too scared to even weigh myself now xxx

    Menu

    seppet and littlekate, either of you any more comfortable? have you tried any of the things listed above? black coffee really strong is normally a last resort, and always works for me xxx

    Menu

    I stopped taking the painkillers altogether cos I wasn’t in pain, so make sure ur only taking them if u really need to hun. I stopped taking mine yesterday and feel back to normal already! Nothin worse than constipation and feeling all ‘filled up’ is it :( xxx

    Menu

    Iv been taking senokot but doesnt seem to be working!!! Good idea, think i will try a black coffee, just hope it goes soon cos i feel so sick with it, im not even gona be able to fit into my jeans at this rate!!! xxx

    Menu

    ahh bless,it will go i promise, make the coffee really strong – GOOD LUCK!! xx this is the only place we can openly talk about going for a poo,it’s mad :-) !! xx

    Well I think i done myself a little mischief yesterday!had another dose of senakot and by the afternoon nothing was happening and i felt sick and couldnt eat through it so i bought some lactulose at the chemist’s advice and well….. i couldnt get off the toilet ALL night and its still affecting me this morning! Made me sick and everything so think i’m just going to come off everything bar the antibiotics as i don’t think i need the painkillers and i would rather take ibuprofen and have a little pain than no pain but all the bloating!

    try dulcolax if not, another good laxative, get it from most supermarkets, stronger than senakot or get the senakot max strength.

    Drink plenty of water too
