    Hi I really think you should try lactulose it has helped me and I have now been able to go to the toilet every day/2 days for the past year. This is after being in hospital for a impacted stool, and being diagnosed with megacolon after doing colonoscopy. Now I feel fine to go to the toilet. I just seem to not have the urge so I go every night and hope something comes out which it does. I take one 30ml of Lactulose in the morning / afternoon. Supposed to take 30ml at night but I don’t need to. This was such a simple soloition for me after trying everything under the sun, I must of tried about 12 enemas which only cleared me out temporarily, suppositories etc. I’m going seeing the doctors in a few days time for a proper checkup which I should have had in November but I’ve played it off so long. So yeah - lactulose!! My best advice, simple medicine which actually cleared my impaction along with suppositories and this was all info from the GP’s even after meeting surgeons and doctors.
