Yeah, I agree with Kaz, the liquid supps are best for constipation. I have had it before as well as injections which were hrrible! They hurt and gave me bruises on my butt which lasted a year. The injection sites still hurt today if I press on them. I have just been taking ferrous grad C (iron with vit c) tabs and eating lots of iron rich foods after my hammorhage this time though, and have lots of fruit and veg and sometimes metamicil if I need to (toprevent the constipation). It will be slow to recover, though I am feeling fairly well considering my hemoglobin levels are still pretty low (about 84 I think!). Talk with your health care provider though and they can advise you.
