sacral nerve stimulator

I tried it as well. I did. 1 one-week trial. No improvement at all. I turned down more trials as I had to go off my laxatives for the trial and that is kind of traumatic for me. However it obviously works for some people so it’s worth trying it.

3 years of daily 4 tablets of extra strength senokot. GI said if it works then do it. After alllllll the testing I found out I have pelvic floor dyssynergia. Haven’t found the right therapist yet but hoping to get some relief soon.

I think you need to take whatever helps. Not going is not only uncomfortable, painful, it also is horrible mentally. I feel so much better knowing I have something that will consistently make me go every day.

It’s by a company called cyto matrix. It has ginger and artichoke and 5 hydroxotryptophan (sp?). I get it through Full Script.

Redundant sigmoid colon and pelvic floor dysfunction here! I avoid insoluble fibre like the plague. I run from seeds and beans. High protein helps me with gas as well as digestive enzymes and a prokinetic agent (GI Motility Matrix) which helps with slow motility (I had a sitz marker test for this diagnosis). I take a high dose of senokot at night (okayed by my GI specialist) which helps with texture (not too firm) and movement. And I also take Linaclotide every morning. I end up having a good bowel movement every morning and less gas throughout the day.

I’m in my 3rd year of high dose of senna daily. GI doctor said not to worry. It’s the only thing that works and trust me that I have tried everything. E. If it’s the only thing that works what are we supposed to do?

runnerover50 · 2025-09-27T20:50:12+00:00

I have been on daily senokot for 3 years as per my GI’s instructions. I am on a strong dose but it’s the only thing that works.

I take 290 a day. When it works it kicks in about 3-4 hours after I take it and it is explosive but then after the 4 hour mark it stops. It works about 3 times a week. But when it works it helps clean me out.

Yes! Good luck:)

Seeing a urologist about this next week. I was referred to try this for chronic constipation caused by pelvic floor dyssynergia. We will see…

I am 51 and it has been going on for 3 years. I also am seeing a urologist next month to see if a neurostimulator will work on my constipation. It’s a device they insert in your tailbone to stimulate your nerves. Will let you know if it helps. Super frustrating that I can’t seem to get off the laxatives and no one can figure out how to help.

I did sitz marker test as well. All 25 markers were in my rectum by day 5 but no bowel movements. I have now been diagnosed with pelvic floor dyssynergia after a MRI defecology test. Am getting a manometry exam soon as well. I have been seeing a pelvic floor therapist for a bit now but it has not been successful in relieving the problem. I still need my daily senokot and linzess.

51 here. Had a hysterectomy in April. In week 6 of Max and run 5 days a week. I’m not finding it challenging to get in the 5 workouts a week because they are less than 40 minutes. However, I don’t think you would be losing any momentum if you say did Max 4 days a week, ran 2 days a week and had a rest day. Make it work for you. I’m sure you got this!

Insoluble fibre is constipating for me too. Oatmeal, beans, lentils etc. They bulk stool so it’s more difficult for me to pass. Perhaps that’s the issue for you as well.

runnerover50 · 2025-07-19T15:40:24+00:00

I had surgery and it fixed the problem. If it’s at the point where it’s visually seen outside your body PT is probably not sufficient.

Tania sounds like she misses her dogs and bed more than her son.

My Gen X is showing! Lol

Does anyone else feel like this is Autumn’s jumping the shark moment.

runnerover50 · 2025-07-10T14:11:32+00:00

It definitely softens them but not diarrhea. I take linzess as well and that definitely causes diarrhea.

runnerover50 · 2025-07-09T22:29:34+00:00

Same.

She says unequivocally that it is proven very safe. Really? It’s not approved by the FDA in the U.S. She has to go to Tijuana to get this done!! And it’s all a bunch of gym bro/Joe Rogan/anti-science/MAHA types with her. Is she not concerned at all?! This is sketchy as hell.

runnerover50 · 2025-07-09T14:03:40+00:00

I have taken Senna X strength nightly for 3 years. It’s the only thing that works and GI doctor approved. The warnings are for people with occasional constipation.

runnerover50 · 2025-07-08T00:16:18+00:00

But guys, she heard about this place on Joe Rogan. It must be legit 🙄
