Need advice on avoiding this constipation....please!
I take 1/2 dose of miralax every day to manage my constipation. I'm three years post op, and I still need it. If I miss a day I'll know it.
I assume I'll be doing this the rest of my life, but I'm ok with that. I just include it in my vitamin regimen.
best wishes,
Carol

I had a similar post last week or so. I would have a movement every two or three days, but it would be super painful. I was doing fiber gummies + probiotic gummies + kombucha
At the response of everyone, I switched to 1/2 capful of miralax daily. So far, its been a world of difference.
I still go every two or three days, but it is much more comfortable. I'd give that a shot

I use 1/2 dose of Miralax every morning. If I don't poop in the morning, I up it to 1 dose. This keeps me nicely regular.
