Thank you for your response. Actually although i do not eat wheat products I am able to eat other things to gain soluble fiber. I eat A LOT of brown rice there was a time i was eating it every day... and i am a HUGE fan of organice brown rice pasta which i eat a few times a week as well as sweet potatoes. I also eat salads, veggies, fruits, chicken, turkey, fish, potatoes, granola, oatmeal, corn tortillas, corn chips, etc etc. I defintely dont deprive myself of carbs or fiber i just go along the brown rice route rather than the wheat. I really want to wean off the senna and am praying there is still time but i am just scared to because i know i will get very backed up. When i say i get 'constipated' I must express that its not 'occasional' i mean NOTHING happens unless i take something...and this was even before i started with the Senna. I also have bladder issues where i hold in urine so my doctors always seemed to thing they were related and that i already had nerve damage (from a a fall years ago) that could be contributing to both...which is why they felt the laxatives werent as dangerous for me since it was the only thing that would stimulate me. DO you think its possible to never go to the bathroom again?? There has to be a way  Also, what kind of magnesium is best? Citrate? Oxide? I cant seem to find it.
