What Causes Constipation With High Liver Enzymes?
Hello. I have had chronic severe constipation my whole life. Sometimes going as long as 2 weeks without a BM. I also have high liver enzymes and frequently have abdominal pain where my liveris located. Whatcould be causing this and is the any correlation between the constipation and the liver. Also, i have recently been prescribed oxycodone for a back injury. I have only been taking it for a few months. Could this be making my problem worse?
