Hello my fellow "can't poop peeps".
Sorry, JB...I'm desperate and beyond! I tried to message
d1nach for exact recipe of enema. I'm open to suggestions of others, though I've tried most everything over past 3.5 days.
As previously stated, constipation is my nemesis. Sorry if repeating, but mine is caused by disease, surgery to remove disease and all that implies. I'm certain there are adhesions, and scans show left splenic flexure "syndrome". My transcending colon "crimps" into my descending colon (like a garden hose). Stool has a nearly impossible feat to pass through the crimp/twist.
I use a stockpile of methods/modalities attempting to keep my bowels loose and moving. I take everything from Ducosate to Miralax to Linzess 290. Desperate times I reach for MC and/or enemas.
I'm in a hell of a shape right now, after trying EVERYTHING in my arsenal for 3 days. I've taken multiple 32-48 oz. warm water enemas. I added mineral oil or glycerin or castile soap. I even tried the Epson salt (both oral and enema).
I joke that I'm POOP PATROL...but I need to defer to the wiser.
d1nach...You said you take daily enemas, right? Can you pm or email me your "recipe"? I would so appreciate it.
I've no doubt I'm
dehydrated after fighting the flu from before Christmas through New Years and beyond. I'm one of few people who fantasize that they have a standing order for repeated bags of IV "super juice" to rehydrate my body. I'm drinking MUCH, but confident I hear "sucking" noises of absorption in my gut!
Gross, but murky water rush appears to only be washing past the hard stool. I'm desperate and don't want to have to go to the ER where they'll do nothing more than what I'm already doing. Been there, done...well, you know.
HELP...somebody, anybody...this is serious (can't) shit! Gr-r-r-r-r
