Comment:
Have had IBS-C for many years now, and OTC medications stopped working. Also have spleenic flexure syndrome which produces left-side pain that never goes away. 145 mg Linzess produces bowel movements every day like clockwork. It relieves the pressure on the spleenic flexure and so I don't live with the constant pain any more. I am glad this has been working so well for me. My doctor prescribed this along with Celexa and an anti-spasmodic. I stopped the anti-spasmodic because of bad side effects (diminished cognitive abilities, lack of sleep). In sum, I am living a normal life! I can travel again.
Me: I wish fennelqwr123 had left an e-mail for you;since their post was a while back.
