Stool burden…. Even with daily bowl movements

I had a CT and Xray done of my abdominal area. The CT said: large colorectal stool burden. While the xray a month later said: No gas-filled dilated loops of small bowel to suggest obstruction. Stool is seen throughout the colon from the cecum to the rectum with a large rectal stool ball

Symptoms: constantly bloated, abdominal pain, and pressure on my bladder(needing to pee). I have tried many laxatives and the best one would be MagO7 but seriously cant take that every day. Everyday I have a bowl movement (a lot comes out fine) and feel fine but I am still bloated and in pain still. I have no urge to poop till I feel it in my rectum.

I eat a lot of fiber naturally and avoid fiber supplements since that makes everything worse. I exercise daily and drink lots of water. M29 6 foot 168lb.

I have a specialist appointment in 3 months… and I cant handle the pregnant look and pain anymore. The urge to pee is so annoying! (Yes saw a urologist and I tested everything).

Is there a medication that would help to push out all this stool? Im at my limit here.

I have been on 36.3mg of Exxua and its been a life saver! I finally sleep better, have more energy, happier, music sounds better, and not an anxious mess!

I don’t know what normal feels like since I been depressed and anxious all my life…. Do I need an increase?

I noticed after a week of 36.3mg I noticed my honeymoon phase of pure bliss went away. Music doesn’t sound as amazing as when I started. I am still doing well but I notice I still get anxious when I think about certain topics and sad as well. I still wake up with brain racing at night if I have something next day like work or exciting.

Also ask me anything since Exxua basically just came out.

I been struggling with this for years and today something clicked! In the past once in a blue moon I get fully firmed stool and its so easy to have a bm. Also its so easy to clean up afterwards! But sadly most of the time its soft and thin which takes more effort to have a bm and it burns! I also got an internal hemorrhoid due to a flare up.

I been taking 3 grams of psyllium husk daily now which helps the soft stool constipation(?). Now the question is how the heck do I get 100% fully firmed hard stool? Do I just take more psyllium husk?
