[Loxaeed]

Maybe instead of a laxative you could just try a stool softener (like they gave me after I had my kids and came home from the hospital.) It's supposed to make things move easier - i didn't have any urgency or consistancy problems with it and things just went smoothly....maybe that would work better?
I haven't had enough problems to take anything, so I am just sharing the thought that came to me as I was reading about your dilema.
