I will try tablespoon of olive oil in addition to the Linzess 290 and two stool softeners that I take daily.

@william1543 I take a teaspóon a day for about a year now. In December of 2024 I was hospitalized for a SBO due to adhesions. I was struggling with taking miralax all the time, changing my diet etc. Finally a friend told me about olive oil. I have taken it daily since. I stopped for about a month once and ended up with an SBO again. Thankfully I recognized the symptoms this time and started my olive oil again, I had to take miralax that time though to help as well as go to an all clear liquid diet. I am back to olive oil daily and no problems.
Good luck. I hope it works for you also.
Ps my nutritionist at Mayo also gave the ok for the olive oil and I found studies on it as well
