Has anyone experienced constipation for atleast a day after having a seizure?
Which Just Proves What I Keep Saying This Condition Is Very Personal And Effects Everyone Differently Depending Upon What Medication(s) Your Doctor Has You Taking
I have problems with constipation but never thought to pay attention to the timeing for that so yah maybe.
yes but the opposite. long ago (when i was a kid) i had to 'go' right after a bad seizure.
I have been dealing with this as long as I have been on seizure meds and have resorted to taking Senno-knot S in the am and pm. I would try one at night and if you donβt see results in a day or 2 go to one am and one pm. Stay on them as long as you are on seizure meds. My dr and surgeon said the end result was a bum and that was healthier than not taking laxatives. I presently take 2 in the am and 3 pm. I am not guaranteed a bum each day but at least every few days. There have been times when it has been 10 days in between hence the need to see a surgeon.
Eating healthy and drinking lots of water is the best course of action but if the constipation is still an issue there is nothing wrong with using a natural laxative such as Senno-knot S.
All the best.
