An embaresing subject. Costipation.

Serious constipation, miserable subject, but an indicator of many things.


I have alway been dirty-loo phobic...quite a problem for a pilot. It is now getting serious with a relatively sudden onset. Edit: The constipation not the fear of grot.

What there is seems to be made up of nodules which break apart readily. I wondered if this is indicative of what is going on in there.

I have symptoms of prostate problems but no others.

I've tried over the counter stuff, and indeed herbal remidies (which used to work but now don't.) Yep, tried bran etc., (which makes me ache, so not for long) and even cabbage soup! Nothing seems to work.

Believe it or not, I can't get figs, let alone syrup of figs in this God forsaken place.

Any ideas, or natural remedies?
