Hi Chelsea, I know how you feel, I'm in the same boat, and have the same problem with the BM's and straining. I often feel rather hopeless too:(. I pray a lot, and just hope for the better. With Miralax,it depends on how much you take and when you take it. With one 17gram dose first thing in the morning will usually generate a BM sometime the next day. You can take up to 4 doses spread out over the day, that should get you going first thing the next morning, and you may have to go a couple times in a row. Hang in there! I hope you get some relief and improve, and feel better. -Bob
