Yet another note on alcohol and constipation

Well, the whole alcohol thing works for desperate measure, but... See previous post. It turns out that alcohol makes the problem continue in the following days. In other words it caused me more constipation. Currently I'm taking a fiber supplement at all meals, a tablespoon of olive oil with all food, and a full dose of cod liver oil once a day. If things back up two days then it calls for a full dose of mineral oil at bedtime. Follow the directions on all these. Take a full dose but no more. I've never had a doctor advise this, but supposedly there are prescription stool softeners. Do not take any prescriptions without your doctor.
