I have had long problem with constipation and subsequent gas (farting). I've attributed this to the constipation. Finally when I went for my GI consult and my PCP (which I hadn't been for years) They both reccomended miralax. So in the very beginning it worked very well, then started not to work as well, now working a little better, also was eating a fiber one bar a day and that helped some. Before surgery I had been taking ephedra to help boost my heart rate during exercise. I only took one pill when I went to the gym and that was it, otherwise it made me feel really weird and shaky and I could not function. I know ephedra is not really good to take, but as long as you stay hydrated, well whatever. Taking this also helped my constipation. But this last week I have been SOOO flatulant, it is really really bad. Anyone have any idea on how to help with this. Tried gas -x took one a day, maybe I need more.
