Loc: Lake Linden, Mich in the U.P. IBS-C

I stopped the Miralax about 4 days ago. I'm not sure that
it really helps because my stools are always like sludge
and hard to push out. No particular reason for taking two
SFS's. I take three heaping tsp's of acacia and one dose
of citrucel at lunch time. I had tried Metamucil, but found
it way too gassy. The spasms are what causes my constipation, that's what my GI doc says. It makes me have
to strain all the time which doesn't seem right to me. I
also always have major pain in my sigmoid colon. I usually
go every day, more on some days than others, but the days
I go very little, I do have trouble eating and feel terrible, and generally get nothing done. I'm still taking
Triphala for the same reason you are. Oh, I do eat less
on days that I don't go very much, and do have cramps and
gurgling. Two months ago, I used to not have to strain
nearly as much. I'm beginning to think something else
is going very wrong and my GI doc is not picking up on it.
It doesn't seem that anybody else with C has to strain
a lot. Thanks for cueing me in. -Bob
