spoiltmom 44 Posted September 29, 2010 I started out taking Miralax daily. Then my surgeon recommended this instead: Vitamin Shoppe This really works! I only use a teaspoon at night. At that rate this container will last me around 6 months. You just mix a teaspoon or two of it with a small amount of Water. It fizzes so I stir it up let it sit 20 minutes and then stir some more. That makes all the fizz go away and then I drink it. It tastes good also:) Just thought I'd share. It's just magnesium which is something our bodies need anyway.

flieaway 0 Posted September 30, 2010 It took me 7 days post-op and a call to my surgeon. He recommended a stool softener and Philips Milk of Magnesia, it worked like a charm, and now if I feel like I am getting bound up all I need is a stool softener.

AlienBandit 10 Posted September 30, 2010 I am always looking for something to take to help with Constipation. I will have to see if I can find those items here in Korea. It is a little harder to get many qestern products so I always try more natural ways like certain foods in my diet etc. i know this is a common problem for many bandsters :S Stuck Grrrrrr!
