You know that is a good point. Drug addicts. I was thinking constipation, lots of remedies but when you are a drug addict it’s a big problem.

Especially opioid addicts, which Elvis was. He had severe constipation and a massively enlarged colon.

“According to Dr. Nick, the autopsy revealed that Presley’s colon was 5 to 6 inches in diameter (whereas the normal width is 2 to 3 inches) and instead of being the standard 4 to 5 feet long, his colon was 8 to 9 feet in length”

One of the treatments for diarrhea was opiates because they will plug you up. So if someone abuses opiates they are liable to get constipated.
