Naltrexone

I will start with naltrexone, which can help people who have difficulty regulating their drinking have a more natural and sustainable relationship with alcohol should they choose to not cut it out of their lives entirely.

    Metamucil (psyillium fibre)

    It’s kinda simple, but Metamucil. I would get terrible stomach aches, bloating and constipation whenever I had greasy food. Now, if I have 1-2 servings of Metamucil a day, then 1 extra right as I eat greasy food, I don’t feel terrible!

      Psyllium husk changed my freaking life. Probably TMI, but I used to have very severe hemorrhoid pain. I basically almost never do anymore, it’s that drastic.

        I was shitting blood on the daily. Having had surgery for bleeding hemorrhoids, I cannot face that again. Been through some shit, but that was the worst pain of my life.

        Psyllium had me back to normal in 1-week. Hope others read our words and it helps them.

          They’re rather unpleasant, aren’t they?

        Delicate question: does your butt ever go back to normal after a haemerhoid “heals”? Like functionally and cosmetically lol?

          Depends if it’s internal vs external hemorrhoids, and on the severity, I guess? Some can cause small tears and scar tissue. Others are really minor and just make your ass tingle once in a while. It’s funky like that.
