What does IBS-C stand for ?

I had a blockage and took laxative but couldn't control Diarrhea so I took Imodium and have been unable to pass again for 2 days. I have been taking Fiber via prunes, warm prune juice and nothing.

  1. Hey , that's so frustrating! It's so hard to find the balance sometimes. I would suggest talking about this with your doctor. They might be able to help you find a solution so that you're not flip flopping back and forth between constipation and diarrhea. Have you been told you have IBS-C?
