  • Hello Zebzebzeb

    I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with some ongoing health problems. It's understandable that you're feeling concerned but there could be many reasons for your chronic constipation. 

    Please do get in touch with your GP to make an appointment to discuss things. They will be best placed to investigate what may be going on for you and hopefully help to improve your situation. 

    Best wishes,
