I am very concerned about side effects of Trinsicon & constipation.

I am schedualed for surgery 4.9.04--I know a while away :) and am very concerned about my surgeon saying I have to take Trinsicon for the rest of my life. (concerned because of the iron in the Trinsicon & taking iron causes me severe constipation.) I have had several problems in my past and my GI doctor already has me on Miralax which does help. Has anyone else had the same problem and how did you deal with it? I am afraid of the post op problem and keep on going back and forth wondering if I should cancel it or not. I have waited so long (since May of this year) just to get in to see this doc -- and in a matter of seconds I am now second guessing my descison. Please help. Thanks
