Poop Battles: You are uber-constipated! Become aggressive with bowel cleansing: 1) drink 1 bottle of magnesium citrate over crushed ice, 2) take 2 Fleet's enemas and hold in as long as you can, 3) take Colase 250mg twice daily. If no production, repeat 1-2-3 on day #2. As a maintenance after that, use metamucil and Colase 100mg daily.
