    Hi Paula,
    I have exactly the same condition as you. I’m female and 59. Had it most of my life. Most Drs don’t have a clue about it and tell you to eat more fibre and drink more water. The fibre only makes it worse. I have tried the electrical stimulation but it didn’t work on me unfortunately. Laxatives are the only thing that works and I’m worried that they might stop working in the future.
