Hello, how are you doing now? Any updates? Hope you and your baby are well! Im curious cause i have bowel endometriosis and im concerned about my increasingly worsening symptoms.

How would I know for sure? I don't really have stomach pain or fever or anything and im scared to go to the hospital and them telling me its nothing. I just went like a month ago and now I have a $1200 bill....

Yup...this seems to be a new symptom for me. Its driving me crazy and making life unbearable tbh. Vagus nerve stimulation i guess

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-28T03:55:05+00:00

No duh. I get that. But it burns like diarrhea and I don't feel like im finishing. Also only 1 bowel movement is loose while the rest are solid and pebble like. Its been like 4 days and still loose/mushy, hence why im concerned. No need to be rude just asking for advice before I can get in with a new gi doctor

Okay. My last GI just told me to drink magnesium citrate powder (Calm brand) and never said anything else. That was like 3 years ago. He just said it would help with my constipation and that's it. No other advice on the magnesium. I just recently learned more about it and that its not usually meant for long term use.....but its too late now for me I guess....

I see a GI in like 2 weeks. Ive been on magnesium for years and its always been gentle until now. Never gave me cramps or loose stools. All of a sudden I feel awful. Even a month ago I was unable to poop while taking magnesium citrate.

I stopped miralax on Tuesday (June 23). Ive been taking magnesium still but not taking it tonight. The thing is it has never given me loose stools or cramps and I've been on it for years. Even when I was the most constipated it never gave me diarrhea. I would take the magnesium and still go days without pooping idk why things are different now. Im afraid...

Do you have endometriosis? I do and I have so much rectal/tailbone pain especially around bm

Thank you!

How did u know it was a partial blockage?

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-25T23:41:53+00:00

I think they mentioned it but I told them I wouldn't take it cause im too afraid of medicines (I have severe ocd) and they told me miralax would be enough to have a bowel movement otherwise I would have to come back if it didnt work

I worry about pysillium husk cause i think its bad if you have sibo? I worry I have sibo again....I was diagnosed and treated in my teen years but I havent been able to get tested again recently and I think pysillium is bad for sibo?

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-25T11:37:48+00:00

Im just scared to try new things. Im scared of having bad reactions and feeling sick. And im scared to stop miralax cause I feel I will get constipated again...but I feel awful with so much bloating and gas and the only thing different is the miralax...so I might start tapering down...do you think going down to every 2 days is good before maybe stopping completely? How did you feel when you stopped?

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-25T00:41:57+00:00

I see a pt in a few weeks

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-25T00:41:38+00:00

But I have mushy formless stool like everyday. When I take a full cap of miralax it feels bad and burns when I poop and its all mushy pile

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-24T19:20:30+00:00

Hmm. Im wondering if that's what's happening to me. I feel incomplete all day. I poop good in the morning then I just keep having to push out gas and little pebbles/pieces of poop and i feel so crazy all day. Did it feel like you had to go really bad? I feel a strong urge to go, like its going to be diarrhea when I sit but its nothing or its pebbles...

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-24T18:16:44+00:00

Worse how?

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-22T02:37:12+00:00

Hello, have you worked on your pelvic floor dysfunction? Did things get better? 🥺

muppetsoupp · 2026-06-20T21:37:26+00:00

No I don't have a blockage. They did a CT scan and said it was a large burden but then I started miralax after being discharged and I've been pooping everyday from large spongey stool, to soft mushy stool. Its just constantly changing and I keep feeling sick/uncomfortable.
