Hi Susan,
well lets see stool softners don't work for me either! I too hate
anything that gives me cramps! Prune juice sometimes works for me! This
is what i do #1 you know those gatorade bottles the big ones well i have
tons we fiil them at night and freeze them so i have tons of yummie
water lots of water does help! #2 eat light during the day and i can
only eat soft foods sometimes i can't eat at all, and i can't at night
gives me tummt ach!#3 lynda is right walk as much as possible, I live in
az and walking right now well its too hot so i swim any kind of
exercise!#4 i take 2 tablespoons of milk of mag everynight this does'nt
work for some but it works for me most the time not all, just depends on
the person and i have to take tyenol pm everynight or i do not sleep
well at night! I never have tried the senna tea i'm a baby afraid of
cramps booohooo!!!!
Ohh and welcome this is a great site you will get tons of suggestions
here you decide if one does'nt work try another! Hope this helps!
Love colette
