Hi! I’ve been dealing with chronic fissures for almost 2 years now. After identifying the fissures my doctors have repeatedly instructed me to keep taking Miralax and make sure my stools are “soft enough” to heal. So I take my Miralax for months at a time (min. 12 weeks+) with no pain down there and assume I’m healing but as soon as I start to wean off the Miralax the fissures return and I’m back at square one. I have concerns that this long-term Miralax isn’t a great solution, but I’d love to get any feedback from you all. Do I just need to find a new doctor? Or should I expect to take Miralax for the rest of my life? Any advice or experiences are appreciated!
