Gas But Constipated
A myIBSteam Member asked a question šŸ’­

I used to have diarrhea quite often, but now I am almost always constipated. I have no idea how to deal with it. I eat 25g + of fibre each day and take Align. I have started taking Iberogast as I also have reflux issues, but nothing is working. I also have a lot of gas and get very bloated, pretty much all the time...
Restoralax does work, but often times too well and then Iā€™m going multiple times a day!
Any ideas of how to fix this???? I would really appreciate any input!! šŸ™‚

Perhaps you could take the Restoralax every second or third day.Maybe once on a weekend day and then a dose again in the middle of the week.

Also, I have constipation unless i take a laxative since I can not have a B.M on my own. I take Milk of Magnesia twice per week and have done this for 21/2 years. I go several times after it starts working( after about5- 6 hours) and it is very loose but them it stops for the rest of the day.
Good luck !
