Constranation over constipation

I have never had a problem in my life with consipation. This past week this had been a BIG problem. I have kept my fluid up so hav no idea how to prevent. Any ieads

Benefiber every day and exercise.

MIrilax.

I've been surprised at how much exercise helps. For some reason, even though I've know this for ever, it didn't really make the association until recently. I guess better late than never.

Applesauce helps me a lot.

lots of water, walk, stool softener 2x a day (my dr. gave me this rx right out of surgery) and a supository to get it started.

Miralax, 2 stool softners and Mag oxide daily

 Probiotics!

 I was on a daily regime of Miralax for several months, but even that didn't stop me from getting so constipated that I was afraid of an impaction about 2 montha ago.  To get things going again, my sister who is an RN recommended I take 4 Ducolax tablets (the laxative, not the stool softner.)  Then I added a 500 mg Magnesium Oxide capsule to my daily supplement regime (a recommedation from members of another group I belong to) and I haven't had even a hint of constipation since.
