I'm also diagnosed with iron deficiency lately (6.9). I had to try ferrofumarate, but it aggravates my gastric pain when I only take 1 pill per day (need to take 3).
It caused cramps and diarrea first, but after that I got constipated.
So I'm also interested in better tolerated substitutes, so reading along!

I'm also using a stoolsoftener (macrogol, it's like miralax I guess) for over a year now. It works ok for me (don't have much bloating), although sometimes I think it gives me some pain.
But I get very full/nauseous when the consistency is a tiny bit to hard, and SFS do not work for me..

--------------------
PI-IBS-C/A nausea & very bad gastric pain
meds: lansoprazol+macrogol
started EFI +FODMAPs 1/2011. 'Relapse' for 8 months. Now partly back on track again with the diet..
