I've been constipated for nearly a week now, should I see a doctor?

I've also been feeling sick for two months now (Everyday), and the feeling never goes away!

I think you should see a doctor immediately. Constipation does not last more than 3 days unless, it is very serious. It could be that you are not constipated but suffering from another disease. Visit a doctor and get checked.

I am going to go to a doctor, my mom said that it could be because of my medication. When I was younger, I had a problem with going to the bathroom too much, and now I'm not going at all... (Same Medication)

If the prune juice doesn't work, I'll ask my mom that next time she goes to a Drug Store.

A week?! Have you tried any OTC medication for it? You could give yourself an enema; sounds gross, I know, but constipation is sort of the opposite of diarrhea. The first is too little liquid in the bowels, the other is too much. An enema injects more water, helps soften the stool.
