New to board, have been using Miralax for a week. What should I use instead....

[Guest guest]

Hi, my name is , and I have a 3 year old son with Autism, that

went from having yeasty, loose stools for 2 years, to at the age of 3,

complete constipation. I took him in about 10 days ago, his

pediatrician did another xray, the first was a month ago, and both

xrays showed blockage. He was admitted Thursday to start a 24 hour

Golytely procedure. When I left, the GI, who is totally supportive of

's GF/CF, sugar free, yeast free, Feingold diet, told me to use a

capful of Miralax a day. I have been, but at the DAN! Conference I

just went to in San Diego, Ca, the DAN's were saying NOT to use it.

I don't want him to get a blockage again, so I obviously need an

alternative to Miralax. He is doing really, really well, and I would

die inside if I gave him something to help him, and hurt him instead.

Please, please, PLEASE...what works just as well, without the horrible

side effects you are discussing. He has taken about 7 capfuls total.

Thank You,
