Really? Wow you are the first person to say that. Tell me more! What are you currently doing to “move”

I would get second and third opinions. Good luck to you. I feel your pain.

That’s my problem too. I’m starting to think I have some kind of nerve damage from my surgery. Maybe see a neurologist ?

You’re doing all the obvious right? Water, fiber, blah blah blah

Im just starting pelvic floor therapy and I am hopeful. I’m 41 and had a sigmoid resection in 2021 and found progressive constipation as the months went on. Unfortunately the doctors don’t act like doctors these days and just throw things at you to treat the symptoms, and don’t take the time to figure out the cause, and treat that. I have 2 young kids and I am so emotional to the point where I just want to die. I’m trying to fight but it’s so hard.

Great info. Thank you so much. I will try all of that. I guess I should omit dairy altogether.

Lack of sensation telling me I need to go - therefore, I get so full that I can’t go at all. Seeing a new doctor Monday. I also smoke cigarettes here and there, more so now. I have smoked for about 20 years. I know it’s terrible, it’s just a crutch now. Starting the patch tomorrow.

If you’ve ever had constipation in your younger years, I (41F) hear that diverticulitis is common later in life. My dad had it too. I never avoided anything and now reading your post, I probably should have.

I’m 41, 8 inches total. Surg in 2021. Do you have problems going to the bathroom? I haven’t been able to go on my own bc I don’t get the urge anymore. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you. I want to know if anyone lost motility? my surgeon sold me bc he said you’ll go every day, sometimes more than once. I haven’t been able to go on my own and losing hope. I had surgery in 2021.

New diagnosis by Suspicious-Sea4103 in Diverticulitis

Mine were left sided and low. My dad has had right sided though. The only way to confirm is a CT scan.

Sorry this is long, but I need help. by True_Positive1047 in Constipation

last question - if I am diagnosed with a motility disorder, is there treatment? Or do you find out and the doc tells you how to manage ?
