Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I know just how you feel. I went on a vacation with a friend. We had this planned for a year and I kept thinking I'd get my constipation under control before we left. Wrong. I ended up skipping doses of Miralax and Linzess so I wouldn't be tied down to the bathroom all morning. After a few days it caught up with me and I was miserable for a couple days. Had to work everything around restrooms but my friend was understanding about it and we got through it.
Good luck. Try to have fun and relax.

After two days of not going, I ended up taking Motegrity, Colace and Miralax yesterday. Didn’t sleep well last night because I way overdid it with traveling, moving in to beach house and 5 grandsons arriving. Overtired. So I woke with awful migraine and then, apparently, I overdid the meds because I spent the next two hrs in bathroom! So now everyone is at beach. I’m laying in bed with ice on my head. Afraid to be that far from the bathroom. Omg! I can’t even imagine the reaction if grandma had an accident on the beach! Dealing with one of these issues is bad enough. Dealing with two. Well, there just aren’t words.

I just wanted to add that we are “supposed” to have a vacay as well….it’s only been 3 yrs…I’m looking forward & dreading I’ll be in bed the whole time. 😩
