WW patients are advised against Benefiber. They advocate Miralax. I was skeptical when Dr Walton told me to take up to 16 capfuls if I needed to, but I have started taking a capful a day routinely and have not had a problem since. He said it takes our bodies 6 months to get back into a routine so I plan on taking it daily for that long and then see what happens.

I have to agree with the Mexico thing...water is used EVERYWHERE and you don't think twice about it.  So sorry you are having a craptacular night.  here is to praying to St. Anthony that you find your..ummm..lost "O-ring" and get better quickly...

(blame my father...anytime anyone in the house had potty issues that struck them hard, he would look around the potty, swearing we "lost an O ring with that last one"...gawd)

I'm sorry you're not feeling well.  This too shall pass!!  Hopefully it is short lived and you're feeling better today.  I'm like lakegirl and get that stopped up thing.  Dr. W told me the same thing he did Nancy...take nothing but Mirilax...no fiber at all.  Take the whole bottle if necessary.  I have resorted to the old Fleet on 3 occasions and it works immediately.  I've tried to take the Mirilax daily to prevent that problem.  Our bodies are a very delicate machine aren't they?  

This is the ride of my life.....what an amazing tool I now have!!!

I hear ya loud & clear Kim...I'm the same way and have been every since surgery.  I was also one of the totally clogged ones all of my life, but now.....let's just say I don't venture too far away from the potty when the ole banana starts to gurgle.
