      If one has been using a psyllium product for years, Konsyl, but was off of it for a few days because of Medical tests, then suddenly stool passing is very painful, the stool is still soft, but very large, and the doctor recommends a polyethylene glycol 3350 product, (Miralax) and/or (Glycolax) which now seems to solve the pain, can/should one return to Konsyl, or is it better to stay on Miralax?
