I am constipated I have been drinking a lot of milk of magnesia for the past two days... In the morning I am going to buy fiber drops to add in Water.

      Yes, it's a very common issue. My dr recommended Colace (up to 4 a day) and Miralax as needed. You might want to call your dr and see what they recommend. Constipation is no joke on this journey!!
