While i am saving money on toilet paper, my lack of bowel movements is painful, what can i do?

GI consult: It would seem you suffer from constipation. This is often best managed with laxatives short term and a change in diet with increased dietary fiber longer term; but you should see a gastroenterology specialist to make sure you don't have an underlying problem such as a disorder of the autonomic nervous system or a bowel tumor.
