Suggestions for Gastro Tracker

First can you please put the medicine Amitiza as a treatment?
Also, with the laxative, can we have a drop down menu specifying which kind? osmotic/saline laxatives - Mag Citrate, MOM; hyperosmotic laxatives- latuclose, Myralax; stimulant laxatives- castor oil, bisacoydal, senna; bulk forming/fiber laxatives- Metamucil or Citrucel; lubricant laxatives - mineral oil, saline
And could you put stool softener or Colace on there for treatment?

Finally, a marker for whether the bowels emptied completely or incompletely with a bowel movement and if the there was the urge to go with the bowel movement?
