Morning 100%ers! Another beautiful Idaho day!
Busymom, we have got to get you cleaned out! I once had to do the colonoscopy prep to get cleaned out. It was gross tasting but it did the job. I felt so much better when it was over. I feel bad because I know how uncomfortable you must feel. Sorry!

I hope everyone has a great OP day!

Hey Busymom, the only relief I have found is with Senakot... they are sugar free.. recommeneded daily dose is 2-4... I do four every morning (have to) otherwise I wait a week and then its ****.

Thank you guys...who knew i would one day be so open to talk about my bathroom issues, lol.

I have tried the senakot and it doesn't work for me.

Last night i took 2 xstrenght xlax (which you're not supposed to) and did get a bit of cramping but it worked as a MILD softner...i was able to go a bit, was still difficult but i feel a bit better today and was down 1lb (still up 1 though).

I bought something called citro mag which is to empty you before a colon xrays..the real stuff for colonostomy has to be on a dr's paper. Didn't use it last night cause you have to drink 1 cup of water every hour 4 hours before and 3 hours after..i figured i'll do it friday so that i can drink the stuff when i get home.

Once i get empty, i have to find something to keep me that way. LOL

Congrats on all the WI and NSV

Brought 10 year old dd to the dr...she had a little cold but has been dry coughing for 10 days now. Asthma..just like me. I only get asthma when sick with a cold which is the exact dry cough that she has. Poor kid but she'll feel better with the puffer.

I am in HEAVEN...I have never been this regular. Every morning right after breakfast. Maybe try adding some more magnesium.
I have stopped the cal/mag altogether now. What kind of pills do you get (dosage?) will look into it.

Busymomx4--Are you eating two salads, and 4 cups of vegetables everyday? I have noticed that if I slack on those that I become more of the Big C.

I have been getting "Finest Natural Magnesium 250 mg" from Walgreens. My nurse practitioner had me taking 2 (total of 500 mg) and then I added the IP cal/mag....wonderful results. There is nothing more miserable than the big C.
