Unfortunately I know this problem too and its not funny.. it hurts!! Floridians advice is bang on the money in drinking as much water as you can this will prevent it in the first place. I have to take mega doses of Iron amongst other stuff and I take that with orange juice as it helps both with the absorbtion and the ..hmm.. shall we say expulsion! Sugar free mints containing sorbitol have a lightening effect on me and for a real dynamite solution eat licorice! I can't do that one any more as its not gluten free but its very efficacious!
Hope this helps make your brown eyes blue!!

Verap almost killed me. I didn't go for 5 days... And 3 of those were spent in Vegas eating prime rib and king crab every day.
Eat total raisin bran every night before bed....
Good luck

SO funny, talking about shit could create so many post. Question to you people who had this problem did you stay on the Verapamil?? Most of you are probably not chronic though???

I'm freaking out here. I just filled my prescription for Verapamil tonight and am planning to ask what I can expect in s/e's! Also, I have had constipation problems in the past. Anyway, you can take a lot of Surfak daily. It's not addicting...very gentle. Magnesium is great. If you get chewable Mag/Calcium tablets you can eat them all day long like candy. If you drink very hot water with lemon first thing in the morning, for some reason it will encourage things to move. I like Kellogg's All Bran Apricot Bite Cereal with 11 grams of fiber. Eleven! That is MUCH more than typical, believe me. Don't get badly constipated. I've done that it it contributed to a pelvic floor problem that was very painful.

I don't have CH, I have horrible migraines. Doc says they have "cluster features." Can I still stay? Migraines suck. Can I say that?

Becky, I stick with fiber and have been eating alot of natural grains and fruit. Yeah, years ago when I started, it was like that at first, gassy I guess but keeping with it, it went away fast too. Like your system getting used to it or something. I eat lots of fiberous foods all the time and things flow ok. The gassy part is just a stage or something, the problem didn't stay long. In the long run, the fiber will be good all around.
*LOTS of water too, though.

"Scatalogical Survey says ... Metamucil Daily!"
Previous cycles I used Verapamil with no 'blockage' down below. This last one though things got bound up pretty bad. 1 teaspoon of generic metamucil-type fiber a day works great for me.
