Scully30, I have the EXACT same symptoms as you! Terrible gas, extreme bloating, and MAJOR constipation!! My bowel is very sluggish, too. It seems as if everything works fine but the very last part of my bowel. It seems as if my colon is missing whatever it is that helps me go. It's like the muscle is weak or doesn't know how to work anymore, you know?
If I don't take any meds, even for ONE day, my bowels completely stop. NO MATTER WHAT! I can try and I can try to go and it just is stopped up. And trust me, I do EVERYTHING possible to "help" the constipation, such as major exercising, drinking TONS of water, eating right. It doesn't seem to matter to my bowels at all.
Trust me, it's SOOOO frustrating! It's like, is this going to be this way the rest of our lives?? That's extremely depressing. I never had constipation problems AT ALL until I turned 19 or 20. How weird is that?
