I use a stool softner on a regular basis and fiber (over the counter mix with water kind) use it ever other day. Hope this helps!

I take a magnisium vitamin everyday and have not been constipated once.

First, be sure to take two stool softeners every day and be sure to get at least 64 ounces of liquids a day.  Add a dose of Miralax powder to a 20 ounce G2 gatorade, which should also help.  Once you start going again, just do the Miralax if you go without going for 2 days.

I use two stool softeners daily and generic Miralax (the generic is a lot cheaper. It's called Geri Care.).
I'm pretty regular now. Without the Miralax it was pretty bad. 'Nuf said!

 It's a common problem as you can see!

I take 2 fiber gummies a day. If that doesn't work I drink a cup of smooth move tea in the evening and it always does the job.

My doc suggested liquid pararfin. Not the tastiest of stuff yet works well. Also crushed tomato (for me in 3rd week) was very beneficial. Downside is that I can still only count the fingers on one hand how many times I have been successful in the last three weeks.

I had horrible constipation during my pre-op diet. It was so bad I had to call in sick for work because I was in such agony.

Solution (after trying other things):

Miralax!!  It works. Mixes with as little as 4oz of water. Has no taste!

Also add a little fiber to your diet with Benefiber. You can use it in hot or cold foods or drinks. Also has no taste.

Now when I haven't gone in 2 days (which is rare) or it becomes difficult, I take a dose of Miralax.

BING BANG BOOM!! Smooooth sailing. Hahaha.
