I have been drinking MIralax 2x per day for two days now, and I am so constipated I have pain, terrible bloating and some nausea but still can't go. How long does it take for this stuff to kick in? I haven't been able to have a bm for 3 days now. How long can I wait before I desperately need to take a laxative or something? It is awfully hard to concentrate at work like this and I am very worried something will burst or my body won't get the hint and do what it is supposed to do. I am drinking a huge glass of water (16 oz) every 1-2 hours. I don't know how much else I can hold! Can someone help?
P.S. GI doc said Miralax is fine to take regularly. Laxative OK if I can't go for several days...???
