stub stock. Shares selling at drastically reduced market price because either (1) their issuing firm has negative net worth after taking on a huge debt (due to a leveraged buyout or recapitalization), or (2) has paid an unusually large dividend. Stub stock is highly speculative, but also has extraordinary potential for gain if the issuer prospers.
A: Miralax (Polyethylene Glycol 3350) is a laxative that increases the amount of water in the intestines. Miralax is used to treat occasional constipation and irregular bowel movements. Measure the dose of Miralax with the medicine cap on the bottle.
Re: Chemo and stomach cramping/pain. During my first chemo, I also got horrible stomach cramps, from constipation. What has REALLY helped me is a teaspoon of Miralax (twice a day) in a beverage. It works gently! It doesn't have fiber in it, it just keeps things moving. I begin taking it a couple of days before each chemo, then take it for a week after.
