Dejibo & others with constipation...
I was going to add that I do the AB&Back to work my abdominal muscles. This does help and for me as my MS has progressed I have continual constipation; I no longer have attacks and have SPMS.
A word of warning: try not to look at the daily ups and downs and jump to take steroids, etc. and save these medications for the stronger, longer lasting attacks. These medications do damage to your bones, veins, etc. -- depending on what you're on.
I'm to the point that I too on top of everything I mentioned previously I take for constipation daily I must rely on Wal-Mart's generic Correctol on occasion.
I have found Wal-Mart's prices to be the cheapest here in the US for Citrucel, their generic stool softeners and MiraLax...black licorice prices are the cheapest for Twizzlers as well if you should need to rely on that for your constipation. My family doctor told me only black licorice made in the US does not increase your blood pressure.
