anyone ever dealt with this? or have any information on drugs that have worked? or just any information at all?

I am a vet tech and we work with a lot of reptiles and I have not personally seen this in a Beardie. We did have an Iguana with it and if I remember correctly (it was a long time ago) he did well. There is no medication to cure the problem, treatment is more symptomatic. Has your vet diagnosed your dragon with this? What were his recommendations?
Good Luck and hope all goes well for your Beardie.

our vet does believe that this is what she has, she sent the x-rays off to be read for a second opinion. she mentioned that there are some meds out there but most treated the stomic(sp?) and small intestine but that there was one that used to be a human drug that she thought would work, we will weigh the risks against the benifits. our plan of attack right now is to get some weight on her since she can defficate on her own at this time. i will post updates
