Constipation
"Four days after surgery, narcotics, and some serious constipation, I purchased some stool softening pills and some milk of magnesia and tried both. Neither had worked too well for me. I had begun to lose my appetite and had a hard time sleeping because of the pain. I  purchased some grape magnesium citrate recommended by my doctor, and at 2:00pm today, I took about 3oz just to be careful. Only twenty minutes later I had to go to the bathroom and had a little bit of luck. Then again around 4:00, I took another 3oz. At 8:00, it took full effect. I was able to empty out most, but had to keep running to the bathroom about every half hour for a few hours. It&#039;s close to diaherra when it comes out, but not too bad. I highly recommend!"
