I take Miramax every other day. It doesn't cause cramping and helps relieve Constipation

Smooth Move herbal tea is the schits:) (Literally!!!) Very gentle, but works! Sold almost everywhere...Walmart and Target have it...in the herbal teas. I was a skeptic...it made me a believer:)

Looks like this:

I had really BAD Constipation week 3. I waited 7 days until the pain was unbearable. Worse experience of my life. Surgeon recommended Miralax. Went to er and sent me home to do a fleet enema. I was scared to do it but so glad i did because it was the only thing that worked. Now if i dont go by second day i take a dose of miralax. But now that im staying consistent with fluids and incorporating more solid foods i dont have any problems and go almost daily. Hope this helps. My biggest advice is dont wait more than 3 days to do something about it.

I've had bad Constipation almost my whole life, I finally started adding a stool softener every day with my Vitamins that way I don't forget to take it. Has anyone tried Vivensce , I think that's what it's called.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
