I have chronic constipation despite eating a clean diet rich in fresh vegetables and fruit. I find that whole grains cause bloating and discomfort, and I need to consume a large amount of lettuce to have regular bowel movements. I've tried laxatives, Metamucil, and magnesium, but I don't tolerate them well. What can I do to improve my situation?

I had sex a week and a half ago, and since then, I have had a bloated stomach, extreme tiredness, mood swings, frequent crying, and bad indigestion. Could I be pregnant, even though I had sex a day after my period?

I have a ruptured Posterior Tibial Tendon in my right foot, 2 cm retracted. I'm getting an Arizona brace temporarily. I damaged this tendon two years ago and again recently. My doctor says I have moderately loose ankles. I've seen discussions about replacing this tendon with another tendon or a cadaver tendon. Would a cadaver tendon suffice? Will it be near the same strength as the original? Will I need a heel reposition with a screw to prevent further damage?

I just started a new job about 2 and a half weeks ago and work in the stock room. Last week, I started experiencing chest and lower abdominal pains. Is this related to stress from the new job, or could it be something more serious?
