Hi Gerry, fibre is generally good for most people, then there are people like me and potentially you who benefit from considerably less fibre so there is reduced chance of things clogging up and (additionally) becoming bursts n splurts when taking miralax.

Temgesic, it's great for pain relief and I'm told it has been known to be used to assist people transition from Oxy. I switched as you know and had very little angst with the change. Remember I was on up to 140 MSContin 20mg Oxynorm & Fentynal patches. I have considerably less constipation issues since the change. I'm supposed to take 2 temgesic every 6 hours, but only take 1. When I was in hospital I was on 2 every 4 hours. They are also known as bupranorphene sublingual & are very small/thin. You place them under your tongue and they dissolves within a few minutes.
