Pooping with Parkinson’s

I never thought I would be starting a discussion on the role of pooping in a PD discussion. My PD dr has always stressed the importance of hydration and a regular bowl movement every day so that carbo levo can work. Well I got off this summer while hiking and traveling. I needed some good ole magnesium citrate. If you don’t know it was recalled and back ordered AND it is made in Russia. I didn’t know my regularity was a political matter. Long story short my PD dr just suggested Colace. Two days later and I’m pooping like a charm. How are you with regular?

I’ve become a fan of poop jokes.
