he gave me the largest dose of linzess

he told me to stop using activated charcoal because it interferes with my other medicine but fennel or peppermint tea were fine. I still feel really good.

i took linzess this morning but then read how many people had rapid significant weight gain although some people lost weight. i am just terrified of gaining more weight. I have two scales. I have a hard time using the digital scale because of balance and i have a hard time reading the numbers on the other scale.
I will call the doctor later and tell him I am not going to use it.
Now something is wrong with my air conditioner. the remote won't work and I couldn't turn it off manually so I unplugged it.

Call maintenance about the remote, maybe its the batteries and they can help you with that. Sorry about the Linzess, but you also have to remember
the people that gained lots of weight had to eat lots of food.

I unplugged the air conditioner to turn it off. When the porter came up he replugged the ac and then everything worked. I guess it reset itself.
You are wrong. The people said they ate the same and rapidly gained weight and when they went off the drug it was hard to lose the weight. I just feel I can't take the chance. So far it hasn't worked anyways.

Linzess - Has anyone experience rapid weight gain from this medication? I've been on it for 9 days?

the g.i doctor returned my call and I told him it didn't work and that I was also afraid of the rapid weight gain. He said he had nothing else and if the phillips worked then keep on using it. He didn't make any other suggestions.

I am dependent on the mag oxide pills(generic phillips caplets). I take 3 mon, wed, fri and only 2 the rest of the days.....I was taking 3 everyday but the lithium caused loose stools. This seems to be working for me.

I tried those but they didn't work for me. Maybe I should take lithium lol. today it was so bad I took magnesium citrate liquid. I had taken six phillips caplets. That is 3000 mg of magnesium.
I just went. I was so uncomfortable today that I just wanted to go to sleep. I just made coffee. My stomach is still uncomfortable. I don't know what to eat. Today I had crackers and maybe I should not have had them . I had a Greek salad. I bought Dr. Tobias Colon Cleanse but haven't tried it yet. I wanted the linzess out of my system. I will start trying it tonight. It got great reviews on Amazon and I think over 23,000 people have bought it. I wonder if this is the way the rest of my life is going to be. The lower dose of aplenzin seems to be much better. I am definitely not as manic or depressed.
