If I'm really backed up, I take a spoonful of Milk of Magnesia at bedtime. It goes down well with a glass of 1/2 water, 1/2 cranberry juice. It works well with fiber supplements as it simply brings a little more water into the bowel. Good luck!

Jordy - Didn't you just stop taking Zelnorm? My Dr. would not prescibe it for me because she said that they had found that if you take it for more than the prescribed 2 weeks that it was very hard to get the digestive track functioning properly again. Maybe this is the reason for your constipation?
At any rate, I would try the enema, but also take a healthy dose of MOM before you go to bed. Good luck, I know how miserable you are.
