Could this just be a stomach bug?...
I was backed up once for 3 weeks. It was awful. I tried miralax and it gave a few small ones like you have experienced but it didnt help. I was in terrible pain so I went with an enema. It worked...
I am a 19 yr old female. I have IBS-C. Sometimes I got 3 weeks w/out a BM. I have been backed up lately, not completely, but I have only been able to pass very small soft stools. My diet is terrible...
Well I did an enema and feel loads better. If I am unable to have a bowel movement on my own in the next few days then I will for sure go see a doctor. Thank you all for the help....
do you think i would have an obstruction even though i am still having some bowel movements?...
I have been extremely constipated for a while now and I have been taking tons and tons of miralax which is providing some relief but not enough. I was wondering if I should take an enema, and if so...
I can't exactly go to a doctor since I am in college and far from home. I will just continue to take miralax and hope things work out. thanks for the info on that test, I am definitely going to look...
yeah not at all in the past 2 weeks. I know thats really bad. the ones now are so so thin and small. i just dont know if that means i have an obstruction. it also hurts really bad on the left side of...
So finally after 2 weeks of constipation I was able to go a bit today. This week I have been eating prunes and took miralax. Yesterday I had 3 doses of miralax. My stools today have been very short...

I have heard all alcohol makes it worse, but I am not a drinker so I am not to sure about that. I swear we have to give up all the best foods and drinks out there to be able to have a "okay" day......
I am starting to try running as well, its hard to do everyday but the days I do it, I feel pretty good. Yeah I am interested in those nausea pills aw well, anything that gets rid of that is a miracle...
Oh man I had movie theater popcorn the other day and I was terribly sick for 2 days... that stuff is the worst!...

My parents and friends think I am just imagining all this stuff as well, it is really frustrating to not have the support to get you thru the day. People who don't have it just don' understand what...
Mich308- Let me know what your doctor says! And no I havent heard of that, Ill check that out! Thanks for the info. Seeman- I am glad to hear someone else has experienced the weight loss, I have lost...
Yeah I am on my 2nd month, and I have yet to see a change in anything....
You might have to up the dose for the first 2 days or so depending on how constipated you are. It does work and is safe, and the best part is it is tasteless! Hope it works!...
Let me know how they work for you =) I wish they just had a cure for this awful thing....
Have you tried Ginger pills? They work great with my nausea, the only bad thing is that they can cause heartburn....
Thank you both for your replies. I think my weight loss is due to my loss of appetite and the nausea. When I feel nauseated I don't eat much, and since I am feeling sick all the time... well I end up...

Thank you both for the replies. I really appreciate it. Judy, Should I start the prep earlier than they say because I have heard that it makes you stay up all night. And how long did you wait in...
I am 19 years old and have been having a lot of stomach issues lately so I am going in for a colonoscopy and endoscopy in two days. I am very very scared. I start my prep tomorrow afternoon. The prep...
