Miralax helped

It helped thank god but just wanted to know if I take it everyday or go to the Metamucil I have? I'm getting a lot of gas can it be because of the fiber drinks because my stomach has gas bubbles all the time. I have one glass a milk with protein drink and that was hours ago. Everyday I gave gas.

Happy that Miralax worked!  It has been my best friend for 2.5 years! I used Metamucil prior to surgery. Because it is a fiber laxative, it needs to be taken 2 hrs before/after medications or it will flush them out.  Miralax is safe to take daily because it is not a stimulant laxative. The milk in your protein drink could be causing the gas.

I take 1 - 1.5 capful of Miralax (generic  - Costco or Sams - have best prices).  

As f******ilk has lactose - sugar- that may cause gas.  Too much fiber gives me gas. Sugar Alcohols = lots of gas  and so on.. 

I slowly eliminated - limit foods that gave me lots of gas... I rather not eat that than deal with too much gas - smell and pain.. 

My diet is limited but I very seldom deal with horrible gas.. 

Should I take Miralax daily because I'm getting diarrhea in the morning and my stomach hurts ? as for gas I don't eat a lot, I eat yogurt some turkey lunch meat  sometimes Wendy's chili. I don't have much appetite. I drink one protein shake a day with milk but I can try water and I have unflavored protein powder and nectar, I wish I could have one protein a day that would be great, right now three protein drinks.

I f you getting runs - start slowly - maybe 1 tsp. 

Milk - try unsweetened almond or coconut milk with protein powder. That may help you find out that milk is an issue ...

Change that and see if you feel better.  Wendy's chili - gives me horrible gas (beans) but that is just me.. Many people don't have issues with that.  

I would avoid the milk (use almond milk) plus make sure you gently mix the protein powder - some blending introduce way too much air (air we swallow - has to come out some way)  

I blend my protein shake (pulsing more than just blending) . Put it on ice.. and wait an hour for the air bubbles to go away.  Then drink.. 

After you remove the milk - and feel better - try to give up chili for a few days. then introduce that... 

I get more gas with raw - vs steamed veggies.
