Does anyone take Zelnorm or Tegaserod for constipation? If so, does it help with the bloating and gas?

Yes and it has helped significantly. It was weird at first. The first few days were diarrhea and then it only worked off and on. I stuck with it, however, and it has "normalized." I'm in my 3rd month and if I eat healthy, I have normal bowel movements almost every day. It has made this condition tolerable. Before I couldn't eat any meat or cheese because my digestive system would basically stop. You have to give it time to work, though. I was wondering about it during the 2nd and 3rd weeks, but over time things have gotten pretty good.Good luck.
