Oh my gosh I know right?! I've never been constipated like this before! It's almost a relief when it is diarrhea! I tried a little salsa and it was fine! No issues so far! Yay!!

kjrny2013 33 Posted June 18, 2013 Me too! So uncomfortable most days because nothing is moving. Last week it took 2 days doses of 4 tsp of milk of magnesia to even get a little relief. This week trying Miralax daily to see if it will help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mamafine23 101 Posted June 18, 2013 Muralax, it's expensive but a capful in every night in your favorite drink will help you to go regular Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tinyt 1 Posted June 18, 2013 I tried 2 chicken drum sticks buffalo style and I was ok with eating them and had no problem and I am about 3 1/2 weeks out. I also chewed the food until I was sure it would be ok before swallowing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dawnolson 85 Posted June 20, 2013 Thank you both! Picked up some of that miralax today at target' date=' will try it![/quote'] It works good!! I was having that problem too!! I put it in a Protein drink and can't even taste it! Yeah! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted June 20, 2013 It works good!! I was having that problem too!! I put it in a Protein drink and can't even taste it! Yeah! Warm tea or coffee...completely dissolves (though its not BAD in cool liquids either). I have a 9 year old that tends to be constipated, we make hot tea and mix in the miralax and share a cup of 'poop tea'....but we're weird! . Hope it works!!!

Lou:) 110 Posted June 20, 2013 I would give anything to be constipated: ( For the last six weeks I have had diarrhea every day 6-10 times per day. It hurts. It always feels like I've been punched in the stomach. It always takes 30_45 mins to go. My job is getting mad at me because I'm away from my desk so much and getting behind on my work because of it. They are threatening to fire me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That seems like a long time to have that with pain, maybe you need a second opinion?? Hope it gets better. What about cheese? That always plugs me up! As far as your work, can you get a medical excuse and that way they can't take action due to laws against termination stemmed from illness??? Praying everything works out for you!
