Heavy rain all day yesterday, didn't get out of the house except to the garage and the bins. After a couple of bowel-ionactive days with Fybogel as well as the usual daily senna, I added a Laxido sachet last night - and then had a very satisfactory movement just half an hour later. These things work overnight and not that quickly, so I'm probably heavily over-dosed for the morning. That might be interesting.
Managing the constipation side-effect is something I have to think about several times a day and still don't always get right. .The worst side of it - apart from the very unpleasant point where it reaches the glycerine suppository stage - is the effect on any plans to go out because the laxatives can hit at any time, and you don't want to be out of quick access to a WC when that happens. Generally I know about halfway through a morning whether I'm OK for a good few hours or not - just one reason why I do my best to avoid appointments etc. before late morning. Getting hard to remember the days when I never gave the whole subject a thought...
