I agree .. And if it's been 9 days since a BM I'm pretty sure they'll want to administer an enema. Are you drinking lots of water? Have you tried prune juice?
I'm pretty sure 3 days is the max you should be without a BM. I personally try to go once daily ..thanks to these meds I've had to skip a day here and there ..and my stool has been hard when I skip a day.
Regarding the hurting to pee - I agree that could be UTI - definitely get it checked out.

last night I took some miralax and earlier today I had a good BM,Didnt really hurt and didnt hurt to really pee.so maybe it was because i wasnt taking any stool softeners like im suppose to maybe why it was hard to pee.

Never thought I would want to congratulate someone for pooping, but in his case, "PARTY ON!"

How are you feeling? Found out mine failed about 2 months ago. Now I have a Seton in me. My first surgery was back in February. Hope all is well!
