do not understand why no one is talking about Linzess? I have just been subscribed that as a solution to my chronic constipation after SBO, diverticulitis, 3 bouts of CdIff, and utter misery over the last 8 months. Now I am too scared to take it!

I think I had to jump through hoops to get insurance coverage for it, then it worked a couple of days then nothing. I’d take it if it helped.

I was prescribed Linzess first for my chronic idiopathic constipation and it did nothing for me but before the insurance cartel allows your doctor to prescribe something else you have to take it for six months. So after that bit of hoop-jumping I finally was prescribed Motegrity and Trulance. I take both every day and they work, along with a bidet which I highly recommend, and occasional use of Miralax. I wish you the best in getting something that works for you. It’s a long and winding road.
