I take Miralax every day in my morning coffee. I worked up from a small amount to about 1/2 usual dose, judging by frequency
(twice a week for me now), have no bloating or discomfort and stool is well shaped and good consistency. A little over (like 1/4 tsp.) and I was making "fudgies", which I hated. I know when I need to go, but not OMG or discomfort. I try to schedule my life so I'm home on "pooping" days. I experimented to this stage. I also take Oxybutin at bedtime and sleep through night (urination). A Urologist told me to do both, all elimination has improved and UTI's have not been a problem anymore. He has me on Nitrofurn Mono (An AB) 1x a day to prevent UTIs. Since Jan., so far so good.
