Oh, poor thing...

Personally I find the pain/bloating worse on Miralax But the anxiety that I won't be able to get rid of the... stuff... was significantly less, since I knew it worked. I mean, Miralax might have worked to stabilize me (I used to not "go" and lose a pound every DAY (eating normally) and when I started taking Miralax, the weightloss stopped miraculously and I started going every day (blah, I didn't seem to have much to go, though, but anyway). Maybe it was just the right time for me to stop the Miralax, now that I was sort of stable, and not the right time for you yet? I don't know, we are trying to figure out things backwards...

Did you try taking some other digestive enzymes? I might have asked you that before, but if you pretty mich constantly are bloated/gassy/in pain, maybe you're alergic to something. Did your doc rule everything out (mine didn't)? Like, whenever I eat milk without taking digestive enzymes I get bloated and gassy (I take dairy-zyme in the rare occasions I must have yoghurt... it's a national thing, I just can't imagine life without it and dairy-zime takes care of things)

Natural calm, I ordered, waiting for it to come, until then I am taking a generic equivalent, mag citrate. I am taking 2 fl oz (or 2.5 fl oz, depending whether I had a smoothie or not) which would equal to 3.5 g (or 4.4 g) citrate (judjing from what it sais on the drug facts label).

What are you eating, dear? Did you try the break the cycle diet? Try eating predominantly rice, it's the one starchy thing that creates the least gas (all starchy things, I think, cause gas, but again, we can't really tolerate anything else), that's what I used to stabilize -- rice, rice, rice... and some oatmeal and water, but with acacia (sounds like prison, huh?). And pretsels, but I don't know, you might be alergic to wheat...

I am C right now, though... we had people over yesterday and I ate too much... I couldn't vomit (I can't do that on demand) so I guess I triggered myself Plus I have too much stress around right now. It's much less bad than before though...

Anyway, I am going to be fine. Tell me what you eat and I think before you despair, you should break the cycle (or at least try to).

Hugs and don't despair. You'll figure it out sooner or later.
