Constipation CAN Be CuredConstipation is dreadful. It affects your life in so many ways. You CANNOT have a good quality of life if you are constipated. Anyone who suffers knows many of the effects that constipation can have on them.
Constipation SymptomsI used to suffer from constipation and I know all of the above symptoms and more. What I do know is that I just never, ever felt "right" or well. I wasn't ill in a way that others recognised but the quality of my life was seriously impaired. I used to wonder what was wrong with me, why I didn't seem to feel like others. I was always tired and uncomfortable. I never felt quite well. It was always an effort to do things. My energy level and mental focus was quite obviously not as it should be. One thing in common with constipation sufferers is knowing that your quality of life should be higher and yet not quite knowing what to do about it. In general, doctors don't really appreciate the impact on your life and will rarely take your condition seriously, just telling you to eat more fibre. If you are one of the lucky ones you may be referred to a nutritionalist - but believe me, once constipation has occured, a change in your diet alone will rarely be enough to put you right and give you the life you deserve.
