How To Overcome My Constipation Problem?

For months I am unable to form a stool. What little does form is similar to sardines, thin slivers. No constipation medicine helps. It seems that everything turns into abdominal fat even thought my diet is very healthy. Blood tests are excellent. Thank you.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hi,
As you said regular laxatives are not helping you i would suggest you to take enema as and when required ask your gastroenterologist to prescribe you Polyethelene Glycol.Polyethylene glycol-electrolyte solution is used to empty the colon. PEG-ES is in a class of medications called osmotic laxatives. It works by causing watery diarrhea so that -the stool can be emptied from the colon. .It will clear your bowel.,you can take Magnesium citrate also.It is also a osmotic diuretic with same effect as Polyethylene glycol.Along with it take regular laxatives daily.
Start taking probiotics daily.
Psyllum husk should be taken two tablespoon in half cup of luke warm water daily twice
Do exercise dail.
Drink plentyful of water.
Try to take a fatty breakfast before going to toilet.
Thanks
