gone for far to long...I need you guys...

Lucy I tried everything suggested by everyone on this site to get and keep my bowels regular. I spent a lot of money on fiber miralax etc to have it do NOTHING. The only thing that worked for me is MoM. I know we can become dependent on it but it beats hurting from the constipation and getting bloody stools from trying to pass it TMI I know sorry. So I would do MoM 2 days, skip one, then repeat. It was the only way to keep things moving UNTIL I had my colonoscopy a little over a week ago.  I don't know if it was the prep or the test itself but I haven't needed MoM since (knock on wood). A LPN friend of mine said maybe my good bacteria was out of whack and the prep reset me... who knows. However, if the constipation returns I will return to my schedule of MoM. I hope you find something that works for you.
