Hey hun, idk what your chemist told you about it, but I’m in nursing and we have been taught that your should take lactulose 30 minutes away (either before or after) any other meds because it can affect the absorption. Just something you can maybe look into to ensure everything is okay!
I remember my poor Mama taking Lactulose because of an elevated Ammonia level in her bloodstream due to Bile Duct Disease/Primary Biliary Cirrhosis. She had constant watery diarrhea and lived a rather horrid last year of her life.
So, first of all you look good in the shorts/skirt. Secondly, about merchandise, how about notebooks and pens with Amy’s life on? Finally, just sending you and Tom my best Christmas wishes.😀👍🎅🌲🎄⛄️🇬🇧
Lactulose is made of indigestible milk sugars. It works by drawing water into your colon, but it can cause cramping and bloating. But so can most laxatives so you just have to try. Miralax causes me the least amount of pain, but even that isn’t pleasant. Good luck and I hope you find something that helps move things along. 😊
How about producing stickers or badges? Maybe in a set of four so you could have illustrations of your dogs, you and Tom in the same pack? Love your Vlogmas videos, glad to see you doing so well :)
Aww y’all are to cute. I have been in a really bad place health wise and seeing someone staying so positive and living such an amazing life makes me feel 100x better
@@amyslife4457 you are welcome. I still don't know how you do it. I'm still not sure how I do it. I know things are a lot harder on you than me and I know how much I stugle so I know it can't be any easier for you. I hope and pray that your life will keep moving forward and I know that someday you will become all that you want to be.
pop sockets, phone covers, oooooh for your spoonie followers you could do things like tubie pads and line clips (the ones that attach to your cloths and the line sits in the loop part of it) Someone else said wrist bands which could be cool specially if you did them for like your diagnosis's like have pots wrist band during that month and then a zebra one during GP awareness month and then maybe proceeds or part proceeds from those wrist bands can go to organisations in Australia that help/support said illnesses
Your vlogs always distract me and cheer me up. Sometimes I haven't even been listening and have to rewind because I just zone out enjoying you talking about literally anything 😂 like a comfort thing. Baby due in 5 weeks I am just a tad bloated myself 😂😂
I am allergic to lactulose..check with your doctor I believe it can bring your sugar levels up..its a laxative that causes dehydration too...be cautious! Wouldn't want anything to happen to you!
Lactulose is very much like really concentrated corn syrup. It is not the type of laxative that makes you "go" soon after taking it. Taken regularly it softens things up.
My son was on lactulose and it worked okay for him. He was changed to a stronger one, sachets. But it wasn’t drawing enough water in to help him. Laxatives can be so hit and miss. The first one had him in so much pain with cramping. Love your videos!
Merry Christmas to you both! Thank you for doing vlogmas! So much fun and something to look forward to every day. ⛄️⛄️⛄️ (especially for those of us with chronic illnesses who spend lots of downtime recovering from treatments. You inspire me to want to do more.)
Lactulose is VERY thick. You will need to flush with lots of water after. It also made me get nauseous, even when going down j tube. But I hope it works for you
Your silly faces crack me up 😂 stationary would be a great merch idea! I have so many notebooks, but I just cannot resist them. Would definitely buy pens, notebooks, stickers, etc. 😊❤️
I take lactulose! And it works usually overnight thats the best time to take it is at night! Well that's what I found out for me! Everybody's body is different and how medication works is different in each person!
What about having a "cartoon" type sketch done of your dog and putting it on a shirt? Have "Amy's Life" in a half circle either over or under your pup. That would be very cute🐶💜
Hi Amy. Yes...Before I got my ileostomy last October, the dr had me try Lactulose. My experience was not so good! It made me have the worse cramps I’ve ever had! He tried me after that on a few other prescriptions, no luck. I ended up with an ileostomy. Amy, since...I’ve had 8 surgeries because of bowel issues. This has all been connectors the stabbing I survived when I was 18 yrs old. Anyway, just because the Lactulose didn’t work for me, remember, I had major issues all in my tummy. It may work great for your!
My sister was taking that before her liver transplant now my dad is he was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver and liver cancer he had chemo and his tumor is gone.
AMY PLS READ THIS ABOUT LACTALOSE: i was on it for a long time and my doctor couldnt believe my specialists put me on it ...lactalose is a form of undigestable sugar which draws fluid into your bowel which for me made me very dehydrated and made me EXTREMELY bloated because my small intestine is very slow in digestion like yours so it draws water into my intestines but it doesnt go anywhere and makes me feel sooooo sick bloated and nauseous....might be okay for you but i was told to stay away from it because of my bad motility in my intestines... i currently take movicol liquid. Its a concentrate and it works better then the nasty movicol satchets...Merry Christmas and stay safe xx
Hey Amy, first of all, I love you, you're an awesome person. I love how you're such a warrior with everything happening. I just wanted to give you a helpful tip about your lighter. The shiny middle piece where you place your thumb? Pop that out with tweezers or a small screwdriver. It makes lighting a lighter SO much easier!
Be thankful you can put that down your tube it tastes good awful. I use it but don't get good results however I can't take anything stronger because I'm pregnant.
I am currently taking Lactulose. If you can could you take it orally. It tastes almost like honey. It works good. Sometimes can make you crampy or gassy. Just letting you know. But all and all it is good stuff.
Amy I think you would and Tom would make great parent's!! And I love the nails I actually might steal the idea and do mine that way lol. Sending you so much love xoxo from Lawton Oklahoma 💞💞☃☃
Lactulose didn't do much for me actually... I can't remember what dose I took but I was told it was mild and it literally did nothing... I really hope it goes better for you!
Don’t know if someone already told you or not but choc-ice bars sound like Klondike bars which aren’t on a stick but a thin layer of chocolate (different types if you get different flavors) around ice cream and so good. And we also have Dove bars which same type of thing but on a stick. (In the US)
My other half has Chronic pancreatitis and can't eat lot of stuff he gets really too I know it's not same you but. Only watch this week and really good your so good xx
Personally I would find small items that people can wear as merch that aren't too expensive. Wristbands and badges are good. You'll probably end up making more money from those as more people will be able to afford to buy them (and they can be really cheap to make).
My son was on lactulose. It works really well but sometimes the amount the doctor prescribes can be too much or not enough. I had to change my sons dose to half of what the doctor prescribed. It may be different for you though!! Love the videos❤️
I bloat like that after eating, I literally had half a tin of sweetcorn and looked pregnant. It's so frustrating especially as doctors don't know whats wrong with me! Im being tested for PoTS ATM tho
iv'e had lactulose its very very sweet and its really thick what i normally do because i don't like sweet syrups i have abit of water in my mouth then take the lactulose with the water as it makes it easier to swallow.
My cerebral palsy teen ( he’s 16 ) uses lactulose and movicol. Brilliant stuff. Hopefully it works for you ❤️ I give it to him before bed so it works while he’s sleeping.
Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?? 😂 Toms questions are the best and they really make ya go hmmm??? 🤔 lmao I'm gonna ask my bf this when he wakes up! Sending lots of love and blessings you and your fams way Amy, hope you guys are having great holidays. Have fun at your grandparents house! =) Gb y'all!
yeah I've had lactulose, it's quite gentle but it's so sweet. good for sweetening cornflakes and tea when you're banned from sugar!!! it's a long story!!!!lol xxxx☺😚👴ps did you sort your pump?
Hi, Amy 💕 I go to the bathroom two or three times a month. My experience was that lactulose increase my abdominal pain and gas and nausea. I took 40ml per day. But still it wasn't easy to go to the bathroom. I tried all the laxative as I could. But nothing came out and I don't feel like have to go to bathroom. 😭 They said that stool is still in the upper part of the X-ray even after 14 days, so if you eat "Miralax", you will get a bowel movement. But still same....... ㅠㅠ It's not yet diagnosed. And next step will be colonic transit study which is sitz marker test. I'm waiting answer for Johns Hopkins.
Lactulose didn’t work for me and made me really ill! But that was just my experience with it but they then gave me movicol and laxido and that has worked a bit better but nothing seems to be working properly for me🤷🏻♀️
ok also i was on lactulose once a day for a while and it did nothing for me personally, i can only go with (too much) dulcolax every couple of weeks. i hope it works for you tho!!!!
Hi I had that laxative when I was in hospital when I was having a tumour removed from my spine! It was different brand as I live in England but it worked well for me!
Rice & beans, rice & beans, rice & beans (beat drops!) 😂😂😂 gotta love a bit of I’m a Celebrity, did you watch the celebrity cyclone yet? It was sooo good! I had Lactulose when I was pregnant and it worked a treat for me! Hopefully it helps you go! Fab vlog & loving vlogmas so far! xx
Would love love love love you to give the book away and sign it!!! Omg if you still want to do that I’m in!!!!! Really wanna read that book P.S binge watching your vids ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oooooo, that lactolose is rum stuff, they got me on it. I'm on 10mls in the evening. I hate taking it because it's so sweet. I can't take a lot of sweet stuff.
This might seem like a really ignorant question, but if you need to drain all the food and drink out after you swallow it, why do you eat at all? I really don't mean to rude/crass etc; I'm just curious.
She doesn't drain it all actually, she wants her stomach to keep whatever it can. She explains more in one of her videos called what I eat in a day with gastroparesis
Oh and you should write a book! About your life. I would totally buy that! 😉

Super late to this party, but magnesium has helped me immensely.
That is a good question! "Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?" ♡
omg i FEEL u with the bloating. sometimes me and my mum try to decide how many months pregnant i look lmao

We have Aldi here in Texas! $100 goes such a long way there.
I live in Texas and never seen an Aldi. Where is there one?
I’m in the UK 🇬🇧 and Aldi’s amazing I use my local one all the time x
I love your intro, vlogmas videos are my absolute favourite! Merry Christmas ❤🎄
Don't be like the rest with regards to merch.. do bits and bobs.. like wristbands, compact mirrors ect make it cheap and easy to post too xx
Omg I love that skirt
But I live in Michigan, in USA. So no cute little skirts at Christmas time for me!
Lactulose is a very sweet & sticky laxative. Lots of people use it, it didn’t do much for me but it’s a common one!
Your silly faces crack me up 😂 stationary would be a great merch idea! I have so many notebooks, but I just cannot resist them. Would definitely buy pens, notebooks, stickers, etc. 😊❤️
could you design tubie pads? or stickers ? 💗💗

That’s my fav gelato Amy! Hope you enjoy
Love you so much, so inspirational ❤️
Lactulose is what I was given when I was pregnant and I love it. It actually tastes quite good tbh.
Lactulose didn't do much for me actually... I can't remember what dose I took but I was told it was mild and it literally did nothing... I really hope it goes better for you!

photos- yes please,I need so much advice, your YT helps so much
I have IBS and I too take Lactulose
Dang, now I want one of those chocolate ice cream thingys. Num num!
A lot of my clients used to use lactulose and it worked well for them. I hope it works well for you x
I used to use lactulose as I'm on buprenorphine patch but recently switched to laxido, it dissolves in water so that may be too much liquid for you.
Keyrings would be good
My son was on lactulose. It works really well but sometimes the amount the doctor prescribes can be too much or not enough. I had to change my sons dose to half of what the doctor prescribed. It may be different for you though!! Love the videos❤️
Peppers recipie would be nice
Lactulose is my weaker than what you were on. But it’s great once you get regular, it WILL keep you regular. Both are stool softeners, not laxative 😉
Lactulose is good, was on it when I was pregnant and didn't have any issues
My husband takes Lactulose. He takes 45ml 3 times a day.
Amy write a book on your story that would be awesome i would buy it for sure xx
Love you ❤️❤️❤️
I bloat like that after eating, I literally had half a tin of sweetcorn and looked pregnant. It's so frustrating especially as doctors don't know whats wrong with me! Im being tested for PoTS ATM tho
I also have gastroparesis and I always get bloated after eating. And there are days when it's so bad I cant eat anything.
In US, chocolate ice would be like a Klondike bar...no stick
Omg Amy I 💜 u sooo much, I hope u have a good Christmas !
My daughter was on lactulose and sadly it only comes in liquid form. She didn’t like it because of the flavor being banana but it did help her.
nope just aldi Australia
iv'e had lactulose its very very sweet and its really thick what i normally do because i don't like sweet syrups i have abit of water in my mouth then take the lactulose with the water as it makes it easier to swallow.
Pop sockets are currently super popular and your logo would fit nicely. :-)
Canned drink huggie/koozie or whatever it's called there. Usually made of foam, keeps drink can cold. I would buy that.
Or a nylon shopping bag that says "bits and bobs".
My cerebral palsy teen ( he’s 16 ) uses lactulose and movicol. Brilliant stuff. Hopefully it works for you ❤️ I give it to him before bed so it works while he’s sleeping.
My daughter was on lactulose as a baby till she was about 4 then she was able to do good on miralax
Lactulose was horrible for me. It made me pee 100 times a day and did nothing for my motility problems.
Amy- you look so amazing!! Your weight is so nicely distributed! I hope you are feeling better as well!
