Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Rose,Don't know if it will help, but... When I first started on Pred, I had HORRIBLE constipation. Medications side effects suck. At one point I was so miserable I had to go to the holistic doctor and get an colonic done. Super gross. Anyway, since then I've been making fruit smoothies with wheat germ added for breakfast a few times a week. They are so delicious. Also, a few times a week, I eat frosted shredded wheat or Raisin Bran crunch at some point during the day. This stuff along with getting some type of exercise has really been helping with the constipation.Naa KoshieRose wrote: , I've had pretty severe constipation for years, although now that I take Miralax, it's much better. When I used to have to strain a lot, I would find myself worrying that I would have a heart attack & be found like Elvis supposedly was; even reading a book! What an ironic end for a sex symbol.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 My gut goes the other way. Anything from the cool whip poos to the splatters! Especially if I eat greasy meat or too spicy but sometimes just regular food does it.
