So as of the last time I posted, I had gained about 5 pounds from who knows what-Ive since worked really hard and lost 3 of it. And my constipation was at an all time high. I went to a GI, and she gave me miralax. She told me she thought I had a bacterial overgrowth, and gave me antibiotics. Well I still get terrible and painful bloating and gas, and I don't think it helped much. The miralax is great, but I can't take it forever, can I? Has anyone else had a doctor tell them it was a bacterial problem? I was supposed to pretty much eat nothing on the IBS diet for 2 weeks, not breads, starches, carbohydrates...she said those were what was formenting in my gut and causing gas. But I am back to having a achy tummy...Any words of wisdom?
