@dottiekelly1 I have all my tests done at Mayo in Scottsdale and the results are then placed in the patient portal, literally before I get home from my appointments. My MP specialist, Dr. Conor Loftus, is in Rochester, MN. He reviews the results and then we have a teledoc appointment. He is fantastic! He switched up the meds regime I was initially prescribed and so far, so good. He recommends Miralax every single day without fail. It is over-the-counter and it will decrease your incidents of blockage.

Hi, not imposing on your conversation but I was diagnosed w MP in June - symptoms since March - coming up on a year. My team of drs are not familiar with MP & I am in process of trying for 2nd opinion. Did you actually go to Mayo In MN to see Dr ?
Thank you!!

Sounds like you have a really good arrangement with your doctor at Rochester. Glad you are receiving help for your MP. I am doing fine right now with no medications, but things could change in the future. I'm not sure what tests or medications would be helpful to me right now. I am hesitant to start new medications that might cause side effects. I took note of your helpful suggestion about Miralax. I don't need it now, but it may be useful in the future. Thanks for your reply.
