Constipation

I had this problem too. When I talked to my doctor's PA about it she too told me to use Miralax every day for a few weeks and then as needed. That stuff works wonders!! They also told me I could take it three times a day to get things moving. It is nice because I just add it to my drink and you don't even know it is there. No cramping or anything. It really works.

I had to do a bowel prep before surgery, which is tomorrow, and had to use a the whole small container of Miralax with 32 oz bottle of gatorade or drink of my choice. That is 7 doses at once. I did not have any cramps and it move things along very nice.....currently I am clean as a whistle....(I know TMI)....heading to the hospital at 5:30 am. I will definately keep some in the house afterwards just in case.

Good luck with surgery!!!! Let us know how it goes when you can.

Yes, it might be a good idea to have some miralax, just in case. The first 4-5 weeks I was fine. The miralax has helped some.
