Constipation.: making yourself have diarrhea is not the answer. You should shoot for stools which are soft enough that they are comfortable to pass. The best answer is to increase the amount of fiber in your diet. You may even consider fiber supplements such as Metamucil. When you do this, you should also increase your fluid intake. You should continue your stool softener for now, also. Good luck.
