Well....it was January or early February.
Needless to say, it was longer than I should have waited. By this time, constantly taking Miralax, I have now gone into a phase where I am either constipated or having diarrhea. Nothing is fixed.
I went back to my Primary Doctor's office. I was seen by a PA this time instead of my doctor. I guess they were too busy. I explained everything to her. I believe she didn't take into account the Miralax and then diagnosed me with IBS-Constipation.
So here were my symptoms at the time:
Constipation
Diarrhea (duh, I was taking miralax a lot)
Sharp, tearing pain in my left side
Tired
Not feeling well
Dehydrated
In this time period, I had also acquired a sensitivity to certain foods. Fried foods, beer, red meat and some veggies and fruit. So it is understood where the IBS came from, i'm just not convinced it's something else.
So we got an xray of my innards:
To which the PA responded, "yup you are really constipated."
........THANKS, I hadn't noticed. So I ended this appointment with a perscription of Amitiza and still no answers for the pain other than it is the constipation.
Still not happy. I went to fill the prescription of Amitiza at Walmart (like the cheapest prescriptions ever) and it was $300!
Are you freaking kidding me!!!!!!!!!
Frustration
