A member asked:
Terrible diarreah from miralax & prune juice. gastro said it's better that having another obstruction and to continue this. is this safe? dehydration?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There should be: a "happy medium" between obstruction and diarrhea..Perhaps you should decrease the amount of Prune juice (which is the "variable" "dosae:) until you have soft stools with 'reasonable" frequency! Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
