I'm currently taking Miralax - one dose each morning and evening. I started out with generic colace and found that stools were smaller,hard and watery. After hearing so much about Miralax, I decided to transition to it and just finished. Today is my first day with only Miralax, so I'll see how it goes. I did notice yesterday that the stool was more formed which initially was frightening to me as I could feel a little stretching, but while there was still some stinging and pain after, it wasn't as bad as with the watery stools. And the continuing pain and discomfort for hours after was still there, but lessened. It was the most normal feeling elimination I've had since July. This morning wasn't so great because the second elimination had become soupy, which is more irritating to the area, but that's because I hadn't eaten enough yesterday due to a busy day. Well, you live and learn . . . unfortunately, pain is a relentless teacher.
