MS and bowel problems: Any advice?

@Mrspotter hi Mrspotter. I've come across this myself, but I have found that if I haven't done a bowel movement in a few days, where I would be concerned, I would take a movicol and try to move around more. The fact that you're passing gas looks to me like your bowels haven't fully been affected. I hope my bit of insight helps you,
