[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you see the pediatric GI they will most likely recommend a two day in a row clean out of four caps of miralax followed by 3 ex lax squares in the evening. After that they will either recommend a daily dose of miralax and cleanouts one a month or every other week or a daily dose of exlax for a period of time. Having experienced regular clean outs and miralax I can tell you that if it doesn’t resolve the constipation in a year stop and switch to the exlax regime. It’s more effective and resolves the problem.

As for now, the reason that your DD still is soiling is because the miralax is not enough to clean her out. Instead all it’s doing is making the new poop seep around the still hard old poop. You could do a clean out if you wanted now or just wait until you see the GI. Which GI are you seeing?[/quote]

I just want to say that I know the leaking around a mass thing can be true, but in my younger kid we get little accidents that don’t seem to be related to a stuck mass, they’re from trying and failing to hold it in. Not saying that’s your problem just saying it’s very tough to figure out what’s happening. [/quote]
