Anything for constipation and gas?

Postby Confused226 on Fri Nov 07, 2008 5:53 am

I don't want to take anything that is going to make my excessive gas and bloating any worse, like probiotics. Gas-x and Beano made my gas worse. Lactulose made it worse. Miralax helped me have BM's but it stopped out of nowhere. I've taken other things which were a waste of money and time because they didn't work either. I'm to the point I don't believe anything will work. I eat fiber every day, both insoluble and soluble. Sometimes I'll have a bm but the gas is still there. My gastro told me if I have more bm's the gas will most likely stop but it hasn't. It only stopped when I was on Miralax because I was having too many bm's a day.

My point is, I don't want to take anything that will make it worse, and I don't want to take anything that will make me have to run to the bathroom. I want to be able to have a life and go out without having to find a bathroom. I want to be able to eat what I want without having to pay for it later. I don't want anything that will make my symptoms worse because of the side effects. If anyone knows of anything that I can take please let me know.

Thank you.
