Constipation, Chronic
"My doctor prescribed Linzess for my irregular, but chronic constipation.  I have been on the drug for 2 months, but today is the last day I will take it.  This drug controls your life.  it is a good thing that I am retired, because there are some days I cannot leave the house.  The effects of the medicine can last up to 6 hours and I have to remain really close to the bathroom.  I have gained 6 unexplained pounds since I began the drug.  My abdomen is so bloated, spanx does not help.  I have to find an alternative."
