Thanks for the suggestions! Birdie, Cogentin started this problem for me. I stopped taking it, shortly after that started on Trilafon, but the constipation just got worse. I should have taken something before it got really bad. I have never had a problem with constipation before this (at least, not to this degree), so I really needed some tips as to what to do.
I bought "stool softener" but now I'm thinking that there's a difference between that and a laxative.
Thanks for responding to this problem...it's a good feeling to be able to discuss this with people who understand.
