5 weeks, bathroom issues tmi enclosed...

Anyone else going from extreme constipation to a day of diarrhea, then back to constipation?? Don't get me wrong I'm happy for the relief and I'm not completely backed up I go once a day but barely any... Sitting in bathroom at work mortified for the next person who enters.

I was told to drink a lot if water when this happened to me and since than i've been pretty good about going. I drink atleast 5 bottles of water throughout the day plus one full cup when i wake up to keep me hydrated.. you could try that.

All the time!! I actually love getting diarrhea as long as I'm in a convenient spot lol I think the constipation backs things up so bad that suddenly after a few days (or almost a week sometimes) it suddenly causes an upset and then the diarrhea comes. This is probably TMI but I feel that I usually get bad stomach cramps, then I have to pass some really hard poop which I think is like the plug that's been blocking everything up. Then finally the soft stuff comes out and then the cycle starts all over again.
