No More Constipation

Hi there to all my buddies here. Happy New Year again to all. Let me touch this subject that I think alot of you guys can relate to. I have been constipated from the day I was born. I seem to suffer much more now after my WLS. I have tried everything. You can name them all. My answer is Milk of Magnesia. I drink 30 cc every morning now and sure enough my problem is solved. I am one happy camper. Being constipated is no joke. . I asked my Dr about taking that little bit of this MOM everyday and he said it is OK. Most of the other laxatives give you loose stools but this is great. I am sorry about the conversation, but I am just sharing and think alot of you guys can relate. Have a great weekend..... & Lorraine

Boy, can I relate to that problem. My pcp told me not to take MOM on a regular basis as your system becomes accustomed to it and becomes dependent. So I am on Zelnorm and magnesium citrate. I take Zelnorm twice a day, and the magnesium in the a.m. An hour later, I go. But if I don't take either, I don't go and feel awful for the day. I suffered quite a bit with it. I'm glad to know MOM helps you. Try the magnesium citrate pills. It's a vitamin we need anyway. Nona
