Hi Brad, can't help sorry just wanted to say Hi and not read an run. hope someone helps soon.xx

sorry hun but just the usual advice: fluids, fruit and exercise....Have you tried senna and the likes?

However I would call the surgeons office again and ask if another surgeon could offer some advice in your surgeons absence. at SRH we were given the ward number and dietician number for any problems.

Sorry can not be of much help, but do hope you get sorted soon. xxx

have you tried senna?? i take one every second night the max ones they are good.. xx

 

[Big an Bouncy]

First Brad what have you tried?are you drinking enough plain water?getting enough fibre?
You have mentioned Fybogel,there is liquid senna that I found worked well and many others.Your gp should listen to you in case your bowel is damaged for some reason.

My doc gave me bisacodyl and have also used senna max both worked .

movicol and prunes xxxxx

 

[capiegirl]

I'm so sorry you feel so bad, you have done fantastically well so far, I'm sure your surgeon will get back to you. Have you tried gentle bowel help such as lactulose? Hang in there and dont let this blip spoil your hard work x

 

[PhilT]

Hope you get that sorted soon mate that feeling is vastly under rated and not understood Take Care

 

[Miss Tickle]

You poor thing, how horrid. I've often read that Movicol does the trick but you should keep ringing the surgeon /gp/dietician until you get some proper advice and attention.
Take care hun.

i highly recommend glycerin suppositories - you can buy them in most chemists and they work practically straight away.

Andrea took the words right out of my mouth. They are readily available and work pretty quickly! Make sure you stay home for awhile after. Hope it helps.
