Default Question about Iron

So while I wait for the doc to reapprove my iron prescription I'm taking a stronger otc (which makes me feel like I could Party like a Rock star!) I always have a difficult time going to the bathroom anyway. I already take Magnesium every day should I add a stool softener just in case?
Thanks,
Kier

I have trouble going too honey...I take iron everyday and a stool softener. Even at that I have to take Miralax once and a while for obvious reasons...I drink water more now and it helps too!

OOOOHHHHHHHH to be at maintinance!!! still have 25 to go. and I am just now getting back to doing as I should. My brother would be proud that I didn't gain much back before I came around.

have you ever tried milled flax seed? works as a stool softener. You can add it to yogurt, salads as a garnish, mix in protein shakes. Just adds a subtle nutty taste to everything. I hate taking stool softners on a regular basis.
