I was wondering if people have had any experiences with Linzess. I just started it, used it once, it seemed to work.
I had two questions specifically that my doctor did not mention:
1. I am unclear on the timing, how long does it take to work? I used bisacodyl about two hours after taking the Linzess, because I felt a bit bloated, but I need a specific time for when to take bisacodyl after taking Linzess, since I cannot always feel when it is time to. And I assume this is not the kind of thing that will last all day, right?
2. I am starting on 145 mg (not sure if this is supposed to be every day or every other day). Can I just go up to 290 mg if results are not great, or would they be better?
Any other comments. I still think I will take Senna 8 hours prior. The main goal is to avoid unpleasant surprises - I feel like doctors sometimes prescribe things sometimes without fully appreciating the implications of trying to schedule things and go out in the community without having sensation. So I want to know ahead of time what I'm in for.
