I need relief immediately!!!

And I mean immediately, before I go insane! I am terribly constipated...now I know all about how to keep regular and I have quite a system in place. But right now I feel horrible. I haven't gone in days, taking my fiber caps, laxatives, drinking TONS of water trying to move things along. Now, without sounding gross - here's what I believe the problem to be: This has happened to me once before. I think hanging out way at the bottom of my system is a very, very large, compacted amount of you know what. Now, over the last few days, behind it there has been more accumulating. It's not so much constipation than it is that I just can't push the part that's acting as a plug out. For this situation, will laxatives even work??? It's making me miserable. I am at work and can't concentrate, I don't want to eat because I am so backed up that it's practically making me nauseous, my tummy is sticking way out, I swear it's putting pressure on my bladder and, don't laugh...but it's actually making me walk funny. What can I do?????
