I think it depends on what kind meds your on. I can tell u this. Caffeine is not your bowels friend.
It also depends on your diet and other habits.
I'm on morphine n cannabis. My eating habits are about a 7 1/2 -8 1/2 on a scale from 1-10. I only drink water n herbal tea now. I have regular bowel movements.
Oh my gosh I just had a bahahaha moment. How many places on earth can you talk to completely random ppl about the way we crap? This is awesome. @ ScottyRay this needs to be incorporated somehow with the MS awareness campaign. Why?
Because its a huge issues and now big pharma has their hands it with meds with side effects a mile long in the mix.
I hope you find some relief n answers to your predicament. I can tell you this, stones n mud can build a house. Not trying to be a smart arse either, meaning when you find your solution its like you've built your own home. Its always yours to come home too weather we want to or not. Its safe. Make any sence?

not regular at all some days constipated then all of sudden it gets very loose and when it hits me there is no waiting I hate it when traveling it is bad

For myself and my daughter, we became vegans (no animal or animals products or by-products). It works for us. WE are normal again. I know some MS vegetarians and they have good results as well... Good luck and hope "everything" comes out alright! LOL, couldn't resist.

I could not have described it better myself and sometimes it is bricks and mud all in the same "sitting". I have tried the fiber powder in my coffee and it keeps it from being so hard, but then the next day...urgent mud.

I have constipation (so far no diarrhea) my PC suggested doing Mira lax as her husband that has had colon cancer uses it. It took some figuring but do a couple tablespoons in my morning coffee and will have a soft BM once a day. Was hard and 4-5 DAYS before
