& Gwynne,

Our son Jack has had problems with tummy pain and constipation for a long

time. There is no easy answers to this problems as it seems to be an ongoing

problem with us. It gets better for a time then goes back to problems again.

Jack takes 5mls of Sodium picosulphate daily and it seems to keep things

moving for him. We had less success with Senna and lactulose.

The fact that is not eating is a major concern . Is he taking plenty of

fluids? Jack's problems in the beginning were not helped by the fact that he

did not drink and was dehydrated. They need plenty of fluids to keep things

moving in the bowel.

Hope gets some relief soon.
