Dear Kay
It may be a good idea to have a medical checkup to see if you don't suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) with constipation. If this is the case, the dr will be able to prescribe specific medication for the condition. To increase your dietary fibre intake and obtain tips about this condition, click on ‘Diet', ‘You are what you eat' and "Healthy GI tract'. While you are on the Diet site, also do a search with 'IBS' to find the article I wrote this year on 'NEW LIGHT SHED ON IBS' which will provide information about this condition.
