Too Much Information

Most would consider this TMI, but when I started this blog it was with a promise to share all aspects of my journey. Most all of it has been smooth sailing, but one area has been difficult -- CONSTIPATION! Early on I had this problem and Dr Walton told me to take Miralax -- the more the better. He said it would take my body about 6 months to get used to what I did to it (or what he did to it) and then hopefully the constipation would ease. I was taking Miralax every morning with good results and then weaned off of it. Things seemed to be going okay but over the last couple of weeks I have become miserable again. I am getting in my fluids but I also have been better at getting my calcium in so I think that is contributing to the constipation, along with 2 multivitamins with iron a day. So, I just got back from the store and I am back to daily Miralax. I am not planning on stopping it anytime soon this time!
