I also use Miralax since I'm on a high dose of Iron, I sometimes get backed up. Even if I don't have a BM the same day I take the miralax ( it could take 2-4 days if you're real backed up) I actually feel SO much better because it feels like everything has started to at least move along like it's supposed to. I mix mine into a glass of juice in the morning. I let it sit for few minutes before drinking it so all the powder has been mixed in.

you could try the 'colon surprise' smoothie from Green Smoothie Revolution Victoria Boutenko. I found it wonderful, not too harsh, and effective. Perhpas you want to try it when it hasnt already been so long though.

prunes soaked in water to make a full cup
1 banana
1 orange
1 apple
puree it all in a blender and enjoy. If you want it cold blend in some ice chips.

I take Miralax with juice and if I am feeling like I need some more I will take twice a day. I also sometimes incorporate mineral oil per my doctor's suggestion to keep things "lubed" up. But chase the mineral oil with something to drink that is not water! Swallow mineral oil and drink at same time cause the oil makes you gag!
