Okays so way tmi bit I have been taking orlistat and it made my stool that soft that I wasnt able to relieve it and for 5 days I couldnt poop. Eventually I had that much bloating that my bladder spasmed and I had urine retraction. I ended up.in a&e with a catheter in and had to have an enema and everything and they said I need to speak to my gp if its safe to stay on orlistat. Im worried because taking this tablet was my last option as im really struggling with my weight and were ttc so I really need to lose it but if I stop it im in a dead end again but if I continue it im at risk of it happening and going through that pain and a&e again and I dont know what to do. Has thisever happened to anyone else taking orlistat ??????? Advice needed

Ahh sorry chick. Weight loss is hard. Have you tried low carb? I lost almost 9 stone in a year that way. Worth a look x
