Miralax and heartburn

Hi, thanks for sharing!

I do love prune juice still take Magnesium Citrate every evening. I just don’t get complete movements. GI had me first on Miralax (never experienced heartburn) then Trulance, Linzess and now Motegrity. I would “clear” but never completely until combining Linzess & Motegrity. Even when I had diarrhea, there was still a blockage.

I will be undergoing a Sitzmarker study this month to confirm inertia, but may end up having the entire colon removed. Turns out you don’t really need it! I am 40 years old, active, and don’t want to depend on medications to use the bathroom for the rest of my life, if that can be avoided.

It’s great to have a platform where we can share our experience, strength and hope.

This is a long shot but..........can you exercise a lot to maybe get things moving? Walk a few miles a day, sit ups, that kind of stuff.

Maybe the heartburn is not related to the Miralax and just a coincidence. Maybe you should see an endocrinologist to make sure. It may be GERD and is treatable.
