Hi Michael and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, an online community of patients like you. You are certainly not alone in having difficulty with colonoscopy prep. For this reason, I moved your messages to this existing discussion:

I did this so you can read past posts that include some helpful suggestions and connect easily with members like @azcyclist2018 @robbinr @mpeters @doolz @astaingegerdm @fourof5zs @asegura.

Not officially diagnosed with a condition, just told to take Miralax which did not work.
Can I assume if I saw that laxatives do not work that this is a motility problem ?
Any recommendations for a clinic in the twin cities ?
Thanks for your help
