Looking for others with bowel motility disorder diagnosis

Has anyone else been diagnosed with a motility disorder of the bowel? (Where your bowel movement is slower than normal)

I have my whole life had problems with severe constipation. It causes lots of pain all the time. I hope you can get some help here.

Yes! I have a motility disorder and also a birth defect where I have a double loop …. I take Linzess and miralax daily and after being on both for about a month my body is FINALLY working decent…. Huge sigh of relief!

Yes, and it has been causing me extreme gas, so bad that it's embarrassing me, afraid to go out in public.

Yes, I have. I’ve taken linzess and miralax too. Linzess works for me and then it doesn’t. I’ve also taken Trulance which worked best but my insurance decided this year they no longer want to cover it so I had to go back to linzess.
