Chronic constipation

First, let me say how relieved I am to have found this forum.
I was diagnosed with IBS years ago and about a year ago I noticed something strange happening to my body. I lost 20 lbs and suddenly i had a lot of things happen in my life which caused a lot of stress. Within two weeks the weight was back on! I went to my doctor and insisted on tests being ran.

Thankfully he listened. he did x-rays and said I was clean. I said that's not true, I know my body, I know how often I go (which is only when I have my period) and if I am taking my birth control, I'm not getting it. So, I stopped my BC and insisted on more tests. I knew I could fire my doctor and find another until someone listened but thankfully, I didn't have to.

Within a month of tests, they knew what was wrong. However, I was moving out of state and I knew the stress wasn't going to let up. My kids started to school today and I'm sitting here feeling so much pain. For those who don't know what Pelvic Floor Dysfunction feels like but wonder.. You know that bloated uncomfortable feeling you get when you over eat and you ask yourself why did I do that? You know how hard your stomach gets (or imagine a 9 month pregnant woman's stomach-TIGHT) Pretty gross hau?

My back hurts and I cant breath! What I have done though is, realized hot showers trigger the bloating, fiber triggers bloating so those cleanses-don't do it! why? your in-taking fiber. Just because you have gas doesn't mean you don't have it. You'll still have gas. Dulcalax and stool softeners hurt me so bad that I feel like I'm in dilated to 10 labor! Miralax mixed with Gatorade, or Gatorade in general, makes me want to vomit at the thought...

I've tried medications but nothing works. I knew someone whom had a stroke because she strained too much so that now causes me to have severe anxiety, i knew someone who had the surgery and they cut in the wrong spot so the surgery scares me.

I'm going to try the flaxseed but I'd like to hear what others have used. has anyone noticed that caffeine gives them problems? I started to see a chiropractor and boy! he gets things moving! I just found him so I'll be going to him twice a week.

I find that I urinate a lot which is interesting because my fault is I don't drink a lot of water. I do at night though.

I look forward to hearing some replies! P.S. Does anyone know where I can purchase the probe?

First off, I really feel that you should try some natural medication, at least for some period of time. In Ayurveda, triphala is a powder which is considered best for the large intestine health. Besides, prune juice is a powerful natural laxative. As for flaxseed, I have seen from experience that it works best when taken with yogurt smoothie. There are many remedies for constipation which are also backed by scientific journals. Read more here.
