I’m kinda struggling here.

I’ve been drinking tons of fluids. Trying to incorporate fiber into my diet. I started taking 100 mg docusate sodium today as well that got prescribed to me.

But MAN is it tough to go. What does pass is like little hard balls. And it’s painful despite not being very large stools at all. Hoping the meds start to help move things along but what else can I do besides drink? Everybody says fluids fluids fluids well I’m drinking nearly 100 ounces of water a day plus other drinks like juice, milk, coffee (which used to make me go almost instantaneously) and occasionally a mini can of sprite or ginger ale. Also lots of homemade turkey broth the past few days.

I’m also worried about getting or possibly even having a hemorrhoid already... when I say painful I mean sometimes it’s uncomfortable just passing gas let alone stool.

What are some remedies you ladies have found helpful?
