Pana'sNewStart 68 Posted December 25, 2012 Oh Banjo, I'm so sorry. At least you didn't hesitate to go to the ER. I took some Miralax yesterday and it helped. I've been working on getting in more liquid throughout the day. 2 Angelizz10 and Banjo257 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mike65 47 Posted December 25, 2012 me either..is this normal It was a week for me also. Take your stool softeners even if you think you don't need them. My doctor explained that when nothing solid goes in, nothing solid comes out. Hope all are doing well and wishing everyone a happy holiday. Been absent for a few days, was hiding in an undisclosed location awaiting the end of the Mayan calendar. 1 VictoriousPassion reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
