I discovered that Miralax worked really well for me for a short time but after multiple trials on and then off, I’ve discovered that it appears to create problems of its own. Use with care and take special notice of new symptoms.

Hello @argentism and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! Thank you for sharing your experience as it relates to what you've tried so far in your healthcare journey.

If you are comfortable sharing, when did your symptoms start and how long after were you diagnosed with Gastroparesis?

Hello Argentism, do you mind if I ask what problems you've experienced with long term Miralax use? It's what the gastro I see recommends. So far its going alright. It's just been a dance of balancing between when I need one dose a day vs two. But I'd like to be abreast of any potential hazards. Thanks in advance!
