I have had the pleasure of speaking with many of Dr. Boster’s patients over the last 6 months. I was privileged to be a small part of setting up the Boster Center for MS. I am an avid follower of his RUclips channel and have observed a common pattern. Aaron is asked quite a few specific medical questions and medical ethics prohibits him from answering them on a RUclips platform. Many
followers indicate they wish he was their doctor even though he cannot say this I can. With the onset of telemedicine it is quite easy to get a second opinion or become a patient of Aaron’s. He has always had patients from across the country and even from other countries. But now, it is easy to do and does not require the extra cost of travel and hotels. He has always worked with other doctors to help supplement the care one receives. I am sure he would be happy to offer his expertise and help to anyone who needs it. For your convenience, his web site is Bosterms.com and his clinic phone number is 614-304-3444. (Do you notice his phone number is 4 for 4?). I hope this may help.
Aaron’s proud father,
Charles Boster
Dr. Boster, you should pin your dad's comment to each of your videos!
Thanks Dad! ♥
L Bynum thank you.
Thank you for this post ..
Charles Boster big thumbs up pops❤️ if there is anything I can do.. just holler.
I have a horrific time with constipation! Thank you for this.
You got this!
Excellent video as usual. May I add that Flaxseed one to two tablespoons grinded is also very good for constipation with the added benefit of Omega. Make sure if consuming flaxseed,also drinking adequate amount office water as Dr Boster's suggestion.
Thank you for covering this topic. Too many people are embarrassed to talk about constipation but the struggle is real for a lot of us with MS. Dr. Boster you are the best!!
The struggle is so real and life controlling. I left out above on my comment that it’s no coincidence that my constipation started to improve 4 1/2 years ago when I started going 5 hours away to see Dr Aaron Boster. Best decision ever. But you can win this battle. Be patient with yourself and add fiber, fiber fiber, water water water, exercise exercise exercise. If I miss any of these, I don’t use the bathroom the next. Have a great day!
And too many neurologists have never heard about that connected to MS, so by their logic it cannot be the case. :-(
Last year I discovered that I have a retroverted uterus. Nobody had told me in my previous exams. But it really explains the extra effort I have to do and the sensation that there's something there "blocking" and once I pass that point everything goes much easier. Aparently between 20-30 % of women has this condition so maybe it's a possibility to look for.
MS and IBS-C sux! Colonoscopy every 3 years. Learning how to feel/recognize your gastric colic reflex is difficult with MS. *not all fiber and probiotics are created equal and can cause more bloat. Add an orange if fiber doesn't work. Pain & vomiting is also an issue when depleting your bowels. Thanks from the MS OG! Get a Colonoscopy!
right on!
Ya know, I was about to get in and brag on Boster never having a thumbs down because that never happens on RUclips. Now there is A thumbs down. Still amazing. Congratulations Dr Aaron Boster on the success of your channel. The channel and family you’ve developed is amazing.
Thank you kind Sir!
My favorite food-trick are tomatoes, homegrown or from the farmer. Even the ones from a store help keeping my bowels moving, and the stool soft. I have bowel movements 3-5 times each day (despite taking at least two of the mentioned constipating medications), took some time getting used to, but it has been my regular daily routine since 7 years already.
Another stimulant+softener is magnesium, or a more intense option: magnesium citrate.
Not embarrassed at all. This is our life and we have to help ourselves when we are having issues. Nothing to be embarrassed about.
If people have the same health issues once in their life , then they will think differently. Dr Aaron boster is a great doctor and I'm so glad he does these videos. Would ur neurologist go out of their day to do these videos( I think NOT)
Take advantage of Dr. Bosters videos. It helps alot
🙏🙏Dr. Bosters ,is very knowledgeable and has alot of wisdom.
Thank you for caring
Thankyou for this. I've been fortunate in this area. Usually everyday has been normal for me. Thanks again.
Thank you for bringing up constipation the one thing that's come about for me with developing ms.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for giving us all the important things that we need to sove our Ms symptoms. Multiple sclerosis is very scary and has many issues
Great morning my friend. CONSTIPATION!!! I hate to brag, but that’s also a battle I have won. I used to go a week without going. And now I don’t miss a day. I credit it to oatmeal(amazing work) in morning and little veggies through the day. Especially green veggies. Drinking water equal to half my body weight. And more to anything, I believe my exercising 7 days a week is just as important. Not only do I go, I have an accident just every few months. When I used to have accidents bi-daily. Point is, it takes a ton of work to fix this problem, but I know we can do it. We got this guys. I can’t help but will always try to get everyone to join the MS Gym at least on FB but expecially joining into the membership at exercisewithns.com. It is world changing. Have a great day my family! ❤️
right on Scotty!
50 pints of water a day?
THNX SCOTTY HOPE ALL IS WELL BUDDY
@@TimothyDowd it's probably ounces...
High doctor is peanut butter high on fiber and a good food choice and helpful for constipation
Thank you Dr. for talking about this it is a problem with MS I am taking Rawprobiotic now kept in refrigerators really good and has helped me within a day of having stomach problems you’re the best!😇
Pelvic floor physical therapy is the best. I tried everything and had no relief until I went to physical therapy.
Great video. I didn’t realize probiotics could really help.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow almost all my list of meds you mentioned. My schedule is usually every other day. If its longer say a 3rd day. I generally will have a couple movements that day
You got this!
That’s anazing! How are you today? Keep up the good work 💪🏼
@@Scotty.Rosencrance doing great thanks. Myself and the housewolf are about to go for our morning walk😀
Greetings Dr. Boster, great Monday morning video as my Doc just gave me a new RX and told me it could cause constipation.
Have an awesome day. Word for the week,
#GOEASY
Was it by design that you wore the brown sweater today in your video? 😆😅🤣😂
I didn’t know that hot liquids are helpful. Wow. Mind blown. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Aaron Boster MD I’ve been a nurse for 20 years. I really didn’t know that. I have quite a few advanced credentials above that and I truly am shocked. Thank you so much. This is helpful information for my body.
Plant based eating and whole foods along with 4oz to 6oz of chicken and fish for me. I also do Braggs apple cider vinegar in hot water every morning. Another thing that worked for me was introducing Miralax every other day for 10 days. Once a month at the end of the month I use magnesium citrate and don't leave the house lol. Hope you're well Dr B! Have a great week
That sounds like a GREAT bowel program Matt! TY for sharing.
@@AaronBosterMD Ty very much
What if gastro say you eat plenty of fiber? And what if bloodwork shows low in iron? I drink water often. Drugs for bladder cause more constipation.I take miralax and eat 6+ fruit and veggies every day. Have had spasms show on CT as blockage in sigmoid colon. Colonoscopy showed no blockage. Dynamite?
Thank you Dr. Boster for your committment to your online village:-) Happy Monday :-)
So nice of you
Thanks for another great video!! In the days before the Yom Kippur fast, I implemented a recommendation to drink a cup of water every hour. Did wonders for my bowles, besides hydrating me before the fast: Even achieved 2 movements a day!! And as for the concern that drinking after 6 will have me peeing all night, I'm up with the urge every 2-3 hours in ANY case, and this way at least there's something to pee!
I find that a good morning routine involves 2 cups of water, 2 cups of coffee (works like Draino! 🤭), probiotic (an hour apart from the coffee), and a fruit. Nothing like water, though, and it's plentiful, harmless and FREE!! Happy Succot from Jerusalem!! 🍋🌿🌴🌾🕋
As a sufferer of both IBS and MS, I have a lot of experience with constipation. I find that using a travel bidet with body temp water (always check it's not too hot on your skin) works in a similar way to "digital rectal stimulation" if you are able to get in a good position on the toilet. Obviously requires easy access to running water. A real bidet with warm water option would probably also suffice.
All the recommendations are great. Except I have SIFO and I need to heal my digestive tract first before eating plants again.
Great education! Happy Monday, Dr. Boster!
Glad you enjoyed it! #StrongerTogether
Great advice. I didn’t know about some of these.
Great video. I started keeping a diary of how frequently i had a bowel movement as i thought that it was a rare occurrence for me. To my surprise I actually go to the toilet more than i thought which is good 👍
Jamie this is great! I started a journal also a few years ago and that’s when I started taking it seriously. Once I realized it was so bad, I started on a great journey to heal my bowels. Have a great day!!!
You’re the best!!
Outstanding video Dr. B! I’ve started eating a lot more fiber and I ferment my own veggies. Home brewed pro biotics!
Excellent!
Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Thanks Dr B I needed this info
Any time!
Jackie Gailfoil , YES WE did!!! Have a great one!!
Thanks for your useful info and advice, Dr.Boster.
My pleasure!
Amazing Doctor, thank you Sir~John
Thanks for watching!
Yes, doctor your right! But you forgot menopause added to MS. Haha
OMG- the personal summer!!! 🙄🤣
Dr. Boster, would you please do a video about chronic diarrhea? Sometimes I feel like I am single handedly keeping Imodium in business. I already take a Probiotic (Jamison) and I incorporate psyllium fiber into various foods.
Hey as someone who has that as well man I feel for you. Imodium is a life saver for me.
On top of diet, I have found magnesium citramate and digestive enzymes absolute game-changers. I also use a squatty potty!
Thank you very much Dr. God bless you, good explanation, i really need this.
You are welcome
Digital rectal stimulation works as well. Use medical gloves
*HEY! HEY! TIME TO POOP!*
That slayed me 🤣
Thank you Dr B for another informative video. I do not drink hot coffee only iced coffee and I make my own cold brew at home which I start my morning with. Does that count as water ?because It's basically just water with coffee flavor 🤣
ha!
Hi so I’m new to this but I’m being tested through the MS process and just had my MRI with contrast. But my MRI without contrast I have the findings but I don’t think I’m understanding it properly or my neurologist isn’t explaining it easy to me. It says I have several small subcentimeter foci increased in the T2 and FLAIR signal are seen within the corpus callosum as well as sub cortical and preiventricular white matter of both frontal lobes. If any video could help me i would appreciate it
I have MS for 35 years. Always been constipated. I dont drink a lot of water because I have problems urinating. I've been taking laxatives for many years. I can't use catheters because it causes severe pain and lots of bleeding! Don't know what else to do.
Is the urination problem a part of MS? As ive just started to have troubles too
i drink loads, never eat processed only vegetables, fruit etc, and hydrate all the time, i am constipated. they think i may have gastroparesis now. FIBRE i eat it all the time. sick of not going to the toilet its hard work and exhausting. If i eat prunes i end up in terrible pain.
I was like this, too. I literally ate 3 salads a day with various raw fruits and veggies, hydrated constantly both day & night and was walking 2 to 3 hours a day. Nothing helped. I was constipated and in pain all the time. Then I went to pelvic floor physical therapy. Through stretching/exercise and biofeedback they helped me relax my pelvic floor and engage muscles I could no longer feel. I highly recommend trying pelvic floor physical therapy if your insurance will cover it. Was a game changer for me. Best of luck to you!
Aww you look like a fuzzy bear in your hoodie...
Excellent information Doc.
Sharing is caring.
#WehaveMS
TY
I started having constipation, followed by urgency, then frequent loose stools. It seems to be a pattern. Is this common in MS?
I am like this. Constipation then the runs
Hi Dr.
Thank you for that information 🙂
I was dx Sept. 2015
I am constantly reminded of this disease, it's like living with a sniper inside my body. I recently moved and currently am looking for a family Dr then get a referral for a neurologist. Any advice on what i should ask? Thank you 🇨🇦🤗🇨🇦
Ugh. Always. I've tried it all. I'm currently having a bit of luck with something I randomly grabbed on Amazon called PruneLax Max. It brings the water in overnight. Also, suppositories. Couldn't live without them.
Topic Idea. I drink coffee/tea in the AM because I NEED it to wake up. But they aren't helpful to my bladder. The urgency they cause is a hindrance if I ever have to leave the house before lunch. Is there a med to "wake" me that won't cause this? Maybe something I can use as needed? Thanks Doc.
What about if your uncle to cook for yourself anymore? Secondary progressive multiple sclerosis has left me bed bound. I’m unable to walk anymore and wheelchair bound. I take Baclofen and Detrol for my bladder issues.
Frequently I feel the need to urinate. Often I get up as nothing happens, only having to get back up..then running back shortly afterwards Bowel movements are often the same...it's just aweful when I can't get to the bathroom on time. Humiliating! I live alone, I seem to have to plan my day for a bathroom emergency. I pack extra underwear and pants when I go out "just in case".
It is severely impacting my life. I'm so embarrassed, I am almost 50 yrs old,.no other health issues. Advice? Thank you!
He has a bowel, bladder, sexual function playlist. You'll find further info and tips there!

Thank you 💩
Coffee is how I fight constipation
I know this has nothing to do with constipation, but how do hearing loss come into play?
Never knew antihistamines had anything to do with constipation.
My secret weapon......🍎
NICE! How many daily do you eat?
@@AaronBosterMD One a day works for me!😉
My client still says “no thank you” to digital rectal simulation.
She says fingers aren’t supposed to go up there.
I can’t imagine waiting for laxative to work.
Make sure it’s slippery with spot or soap.
A lil soap on you finger further stimulates the colic reflex.
I’ve added soap to my digit to help stimulation in an emergency.
Perifit is a PFT trainer (for women? Not sure if it can go up the poop shoot) that adds video game activities to kegal contraction exercises.
