Hi everyone,
I haven’t posted in years. I had my DS with Rabkin in 2015. I have been struggling for almost two years. Chronic constipation, bloating. Nothing helps. Had ever GI test all with no significant findings. I even had 3 months of invasive pelvic floor therapy. These symptoms started after I had a tummy tuck and other plastics done. Anyway, all My labs are fine. I religiously take all my vitamins and minerals. Here is the issue. I recently had labs done and I have thiamine deficiency. Like B1, Beri Beri! What the heck?!
Since I am unable to poop.... everything tried, from enemas to bottles of magnesium citrate, Linzess and that pelvic therapy. Only way I can exist as a semi normal person is the consume 1cup of miralax daily. I think this is equal to about 12 doses daily. I know this is totally crazy. I am a health professional myself and no one has come up with any idea what could be going on? I’m scared, and so uncomfortable every minute of every day. This has impacted ever aspect of my life. SOMEONE please help? I’ve tried everything I could possibly think of.
Thanks for listening.
