What Causes Constant Abdominal Distension Along With Oral Thrush And Constipation?

i m 42 years old female. For the past month, I have had continuous abdominal distension and when I eat a small amount my upper abdomen feels extremely tight and discomforting. I also noticed that I have oral thrush as well and constipation. I had x-rays done and the doctor said I had extreme fecal impact and to take miralax to resolve. This has not helped. Please let me know what the cause is. Thank you
