Ever since I went low carb (mostly avoid wheat, but I'll have oats, eat gluten free bread), I've had constipation despite lots of fruit and vegetables and tonnes of water. I started up with miralax over weekend and added wheat bran to my oatmeal. The wheat bran worked when I had chronic constipation as a kid. Back then, I added it to weetabix cereal and ate it a few times a week.
My question is how long to stay on the miralax before seeing if the added wheat bran is enough. I know peds. have kids with chronic constipation stay on a maintenance dose for some time to get everything back working properly. I've been dealing with this for over 6 months.
Thanks.
