I've had my ileostomy for 50 years, and it has worked great. In the last five years, I have had four or five blockages. One trip to the ER, they gave me a 10 oz bottle of Magnesium Citrate, which resolved the blockage. I bought a few bottles to have on hand at home and have used them successfully when a blockage arose. Does anyone have a recommendation for a daily product to help with digestion and hopefully eliminate or minimize blockages? I do watch what I eat and chew, chew, chew. Thank you.
