Fullness Of Stomach With Small Meal, Food Travels Down The Stomach Slowly, Frequent Constipation. Had Attack Of Pancreatitis Earlier. What Could Be The Solution?

I had earlier an attack of pancreatitis . Subsequently I am doing fine with strict diet control, exercise etc. But my stomach gets filled fast and it takes quite sometime for it to travel down from stomach. I also have constipation often. Is there any solution for this. Can I take medicine like cremalax 10 mg for constipation

Hi,
I think you should try taking small frequent meals and take lots of fluids, to maintain good hydration.To help your constipation ,take diet high in fiber. Take more of salads and vegetables.In case it does not help try taking pro kinetic drug ,to stimulate your gut. Instead of Tab Cremalax , try taking bulk forming laxatives taking psyllium or methyl cellulose.
