s going on. It could very well be a physical problem. Mine was; my
colon is very tortuous (twisted), and it's nothing I did, it's just a defect I've always had. My mom has it too, and back in her day she was too embarrassed to talk about it, and they probably wouldn't have had an effective treatment anyway. The result of the years of constipation was the formation of diverticula in her colon. Unfortunately, one of these became irritated, then infected, and then burst!
