Miralax not working

I read that you are on iron pills. They can cause constipation. That could be adding to your problem. I was taking multi-vitamin that contained iron and also had to switch. I also found that the Miralax can cause "uncontrolled elimination". Maybe just take one dose daily? I've been told exercise, fiber, plenty of water (70 oz or more). I know the panic feeling of wanting out of your body and just wanting to have your body work right. Then life would be pretty wonderful!

One dose a day of Miralax does not work. I am eating prunes, oatmeal, chia seeds, flax seeds, drink 64 oz of water daily, once in a while I don't get up to that but mostly I do. Dr. wants me on two doses of Miralax. I'm so tired of all of this since nothing works. Either I don't go, or I go too much. I have to take iron since I have AVM's and they bleed so I become Anemic.
