emo, I understand the cramps and bloating. For a long time I was using the Metamucil powder with the miralax. Recently my hubby purchased Metamucil gummies. WOW, they are much better for me. I take 5 at evening with my miralax, I take about an hour to get it all done. This has helped a lot. The bloating and cramping was getting worse, 🤮🤮 6x , felt like a gallon of fluid came out. I nearly fell asleep at the toilet. ShelleyW

Thanks! I’m glad you find a combo that worked for you. Took a look at the Metamucil gummies and not sure it would work for me because I see the fiber source is inulin/chicory root fiber, which I have a lot of problems with. It’s very high FODMAP (a fermentable carbohydrate so it causes gas) and maybe that’s why? I didn’t realize Metamucil had sooo many products!
