Ok, so i havent been to the toilet now for 6 days, ive eaten reguarly, three times daily. Im having excritutiating pains in my tummy and then they die down but when they flare up i find it difficult to even move. Ive not even had the desire to push or to try to go to the bathroom....Ive tried all the foods that can assist e.g. prunes... but i didnt really want to resort to medications as i always get side effects and feel off..however now i think im going to have to as food sources havent helped.
