That sounds like myself....I wanna know why its like that too

Hi lisabeth,

i don't know what 'bp fest"stands for, but as for your question about being bloated after taking laxatives...I know that happens to me too, my bowels gets really big and filled with gas and I look 4 months pregnant. Taking laxatives to get in shape is not a good idea, it will give you this bloated feeling and perhaps diarrea, plus it doesn't make you loose a lot of weight, just temporary fluids. I don't suggest taking laxatives, but I know it is hard not too. I still use them occasionally, can't help myself.
Good luck,
nicole

Bloating is one of the many side effects of ed's. When I used to b/p, I was so bloated. For some people, it does go away with looking after your health, for others - the intensity lessens. It's all very individual. I find that taking evening primrose oil capsules has helped with the bloating (not just pms bloating either). I suffered so much with a bad stomach up until a few months ago, when I eventually gave in and tried the capsules. I have a very weak bladder, on account of the whole ed :cry: . One of my regrets has to do with my physical health. The capsules have worked a treat for me :).

Thanks so much for the replys
love lisabeth

You said that you had a weak bladder account of the ed I was wondering does that really happen you get a weak bladder? If so why does that happen?

Yes, it is a common side affect from ed, as is ibs. The reason is because after abusing your body, your body finds it difficult to adjust. For me, if I didn't know better - there are days it feels similar to when I took lax in the past (which I haven't in nearly 3 years). It does get embarrassing at times, but at least, I know that I am well on the road to recovery, and even full recovery doesn't seem so far off anymore.

Not sure if i've answered your question.
