I mentioned lack of bowel movements to nurse and she wanted me to take milk of magnesia. I tried once and it did not do anything. Maybe I should try again.
I do take colace 250 x 2 regularly.

I only eat some liquid foods like soups, soymilk with protein powder and probably not enough. I do drink a lot of gatorade etc.

I don't have a tube.

The IV was offered one day I felt and looked particularly bad. I could probably aske for it.

I urinate normally.

How would I know if I am constipated. Nothing at all comes out.
