I have discoverd the ultimate "bowl-mover" EVER ... well for me anyway
PRUNE JUICE! It tastes like cr@p, but I just add a little apple juice and some Sprite Zero and if you pinch your nose and imagine it's chocolate milkshake .... Bob's your Uncle. I take about half a glass per day in the morning and then with my slow metabolisim, I'm cleared out in two days.
But you can also try dried fruit roll .. and dried apricots works well also.
Ouch Mel...I know exactly what you are talking about. suffered incredibly with a fissure after DS was born.
My poo foods are:
* prune juice. Fantastic, I had a glass every night before bed.
* Prunse and dried apricots. Would just snack on a handful as the day went on.
* coloxyl with senna rocks>
* Movicol <from the chemist< it is drink you mix up and have once a day< or eight times a day if things are really bad and backed up
* nulax< but i can"t remember what MotherSafe said about it, they were pretty happy with most laxatives, but you might need to check.
And if it is still tender etc< get yourself some rectogesic> Causes a headache when you first use it, but it relaxes things and stops it from re-tearing while your sort out your poo probs.
Sorry if I have carried on a bit...have a long history of these kinda problems. And sorry about all the arrows and stuff through my post...my keyboard has gone nuts!?!
