IBS is my enemy. When I have it, my IC pain is extreme. I have been eating 5 dried prunes each morning and the results have been tremendous. It is such a relief to be regular. I did not realize what a huge amount of stress constipation put on my body.

At first, having bowel movements caused me some minor bladder burn right afterwards and I felt drained (probably from the shock to my system). However, within a few days, it felt like my body was released from all the toxins I had been keeping. I now feel much better.

'They' say that you have to flush your system of germs and bacteria. Maybe being constipated prevents that from happening. Anyone think so? PFO
