hi pooch,

i'm not at the end of the line yet. i've tried a couple of things that work for me.
1. i've taken metamucil 1 heaping kitchen teaspoon every nite. if it's too much pull back. and 2. now i take 200mg (2 pills) of docusate sodium. it's the generic for colace which is very expensive. the generic is much cheaper. you can get a huge bottle at walgreens. but, start small.

also make sure you take in at least 8 cups of water each day. hydration helps.

good luck.
