Sometimes I can't even go once a week. It's terrible. I really need to do better with the mag. citrate and/or colon cleanse. I am so backed up.

I will ask the NP about the fiber and the rest of my regular bowel meds at my next visit. Should I be taking ANY of them if they don't work at all?

Yeah, the mag citrate makes me really nauseous. And the colon cleanse makes me feel really full and can give me heartburn depending on which Gatorade I use. I usually water it down and never use the red fruit punch flavor anymore.

I will have to do the colon cleanse soon… maybe tomorrow.

There are 2 expensive prescription meds that are for IBS. One is Amatiza. I forget the name of the other one. I can't afford either, but that doesn't matter since I have tried both of them and they don't work for me.
