Should you decide to give this a try, it would probably be good to talk with the pharmacist as well.
I never did take a supository; but did take Miralax almost every day; but still got blocked up. Actually looked up fecal incontinence. Because of the blockage, wasn't closing all the way so whatever little the Miralax did, it kind of started coming thru without my knowledge at times. Had to use a liner for just in case purposes. Also kept liners in my purse at all times as well if needed to change. Would not be much; but still there would be something on the liner. It was when I was looking up the fecal incontinence that I came across the mag citrate and Phillips recommendation.

oh wow...what a nightmare. lately i haven't been hungry so i have been eating very little. yesterday i just had oatmeal, blueberries and romain lettuce. I don't know what is in there. today I will try some phillips.....I didn't buy the citrate yet in hopes that the miralax might work in a couple of days.
thank you so very much
