HI
Thank for choosing HCM
Sir, even after having multiple almost fatal pathologies you are still doing good, just keep it up, now constipation is not big deal to you and can come over this very easily, drink plenty of water, have fiber containing diet, no need to say you that keep your stress level low, Please do not be so conscious regarding your bowl habit, just relax no problem even if it takes three to four days, but will, go away soon, you can try Isubgol contain powder, good luck.
