[QUOTE="andromache, post: 2444343, member: 495186"] Don't give up on the stool softeners like macrogol. A low daily dose is what you want - they take time (days) to work, and they work gradually and with your body. They're more gentle persuasion than TNT, and much better for you and your gut. You can buy macrogol 400 solution OTC (Dulcosofr is the brand) and you can measure out your own dose from there. It's clear liquid and non-disgusting. Once things are moving again, you really don't need much to keep them moving - 10ml daily might do the trick (that is a dose of 5mg macrogol 4000). And no carbs. Or at least if there are any, they're not in a form that can be absorbed by you.. [/QUOTE]
