    IBS Feedback: GOOD LORD! Mineral oil is toxic and should be taken off the market. Are you understanding why you are like this? Your bowels are inflamed because of the foods you are eating. Try a gluten free diet. Also I used to have something simular and took Every Bodys FIber from Natures Sunshine and I had no more symptoms after 30 days regular use. Mineral oil is keepingyour bowels inflamed plus your bowels are so used to it they wont work on their own especiallyw ith the miralax.

    IBS Feedback: I take mebeverine(helps get you regular) on perscription as well as omperazole(stops the bloating) and Domperidone(anti nausea). I do suffer with ibs quite severly!! These seem to ease the symptoms. I also drink peppermint tea after every meal as advised by my doctor. Hope this helps.

    I started taking Bio K dairy Free probiotic recently and it helps my extreme constipation . I used to have one bm a month now I go every second day.
    You can find it at health food stores and a few grocery store in the ‘organic’ section.
