Irritable Bowel Syndrome
"I am 55.  In my 30&#039;s had mostly diarrhea, some constipation for five years.  At 49 started diarrhea for 4 1/2 years.  Started CPAP(night breathing device) and turned to mostly constipation.  After 1 1/2 years of constipation OR less often diarrhea the second day of 145 Linzess I was regular for four whole days in a row.  Then my samples ran out.  Took ten days with my gastro and insurance company to get more.  A miserable ten days to be sure.  This time the next day it worked.  No diarrhea so far.  Mostly firm and finally getting some color to my stools.  A miracle I say.  Will do daily until I feel comfortable to use randomly."
