I went to the gastroenterologist, and she said I am constipated all the way down. How is that possible? Can you be constipated all the way down? Does anyone have good suggestions to help constipation, or has anyone else been in my situation?

Walking also helps get the guts moving. But yes essentially hydrate, eat foods with fiber, and move. What does she mean all the way down? Like your whole intestine is backed?? Apart from your colon?
