My Dr sold me Senekot S, it is a natural laxative with a stool softner in it, For severe constipation I have used Milk of Magnesia and Mineral Oil in SF applesauce. I had the lap band surgery. Hope this helps.

I experiences the same problem. I take 2 stool softener daily before bed, and every other day 2 constipation pills. Popular names are Colace and Duloex, something like that. Please drink your water it became so bad that I ended up back in hospital from bleeding and developing a hard ball inside me. Trust me it isn't fun WATER!!!!!!

Hi I am 10 weeks out RNY and a great friend of mine (RNY 6 years out) tunrned me onto "Ballerina Tea" which you can buy at any asian food market it is in a green box and I drink one cup at night and in the morning TRUST ME you will have no problems. It is safe and it is a guarantee for me. Tastes great too.

You name it I have tried it. My NUT told me to use Senokot....did not work. So I switched to Miralax. That has been the best so far.

I take 2 colace daily andd it helps me. Also they are right about the water I dehydrated too, but I just started with Gatorade Icees ( sugar is kinda high in count if you can han handle it), but I had to rehydrate my body. Now I eat alot of ice and drink icee water.
