Hi PN

>When do you think I should try going without the Miralax?

In all honesty.......... never! Tolerance to the constipating effect of opioids doesn't usually develop.

>.........should I taper down, using it every other day or using half as much, etc?

Aim for a dose of MiraLax which allows you to painlessly pass soft stools on a regular (!) basis ie. similar to your usual frequency in the unmedicated state.

>Ed: I hope you're doing well!

Not bad thank you :-) .......but I've got a mild virus :-(

Warm regards

Ed
