    My senior girl, Kiki, has IBD (constipation & vomiting), CKD, and insulin dependent diabetes. I've been managing her constipation with 1/8 tsp. Miralax plus 1 tsp baby food pumpkin mixed in soft food daily. I've noticed her blood sugars are higher since starting this regime. I haven't changed anything else. Has anyone else noticed this happening?

    I use clearlax, a different brand but it's the same stuff and no, it has not affected Hendrick's BG

    I have not seen a BG change when using Polyethylene Glycol 3350 which is the chemical name for the Brand Miralax.
