Oh. Sorry you are not feeling better.

I have found many bland foods I used to tolerate are now problematic.
I do not digest them well and/or they give me symptoms.

The key to using stool softeners and/or laxatives may be in using them more consistently, in cases of chronic constipation.

Some find altering diet to include more fiber and staying hydrated very helpful. Adding a healthy oil and regular exercise may also help. I don't know if you are able to tolerate a higher fiber diet or not.

Many swear by their daily prunes. There are lemon-flavored dried prunes which many find more palatable. There was a good recipe on a former forum. I cannot recall the recipe. I think it made a prune-based paste-like remedy, which was eaten. Many found the recipe helpful.

I have heard of "Smooth Move" tea. I have heard people say they like it.

Rest well. feel better.
