I've had 3 colonoscopies in the past 8 years, and every time the IBS diagnosis has been confirmed. My GI doctor actually prescribed Miralax to me about 6 years ago. I took it happily for about 3 years & actually felt normal, i.e., no cramps & having a bm about 5 days a week.

Then, I had to stop taking Miralax when I got pregnant (my ob/gyn didn't think it was safe). After I had the baby I had strange bouts of D for about 6 months. Then, my good old C came back. I recently tried Zelnorm, but didn't always feel good on it, so I switched back to Miralax. It's been great!

I keep my eyes open for new developments in the treatment of IBS, but I don't search for freaky solutions. The threat of pain & discomfort from something new is too scary for me. I actually found this site last summer when I was having doubts about taking Zelnorm & wanted to see I could find any discussions about it.
