Constipation is making me really out of sorts and grumpy

Posted , 1 user is following.

I've been constipated for the last seven days. For the first two or three days I could handle it no problem. However, with each passing day I feel more and more bloated and uncomfortable. Yesterday I felt the urge to go but was in the middle of an important meeting, so I had to ignore it. The meeting finished an hour later so I tried to go then. I strained like mad but, much to my frustration, I still could not pass anything. Ive had constipation before but this time it is different as I'm incredibly grumpy, irritable and feel completely out of sorts. I snap at the least little thing. Could my mood relate to the fact that I am constipated. I've been trying to put my discomfort issues to the back of my mind so I didn't think it would be a problem but maybe it is. Would be interested to hear from anyone experiencing similar things.
