Constipation, Chronic
"Only gave LInzess an 8 because just don&#039;t know yet - it&#039;s too early to give it an educated rating.  I have taken Linzess only twice.  I took it last Friday and I went to the bathroom for 3-4 hours.  It was like a colonoscopy prep.  I fasted on Saturday (as I do twice a week) so I didn&#039;t take one.  Sunday I went to a Christmas party and was afraid to take one.  Monday I had workers here working in and around the bathrooms so I didn&#039;t take one.  Finally, yesterday I took one yesterday and I experienced cramps and small hard stools several times that came out like an explosion.  Not going to give up yet.  Going to take another today.  If I have to stay home for a few days and condition myself I will do it.  Have had constipation all my life."
