Problems fully emptying bowels

Hi folks I was diagnosed with crohn’s nearly 3 years ago, I have tried a few medications but due to side effects I have been left without medication. I go through periods of loose stools then months of constipation but for the last 18 months or so no matter what the stool is like the aftermath is the same, it takes about a full toilet roll to get clean. The first week of lockdown I went for an x-ray study I took a tablet on the Monday and went for x-ray on the Friday, the tablet dispersed markers. I got a letter from my gastro consultant saying the study showed on going problems with rectal emptying and I was being referred to his colleagues in Colorectal surgery with regards to managing it. Has anyone had a similar problem or know of what the solutions could be? Many thanks

Is your problem constipation? Like you, I use to go weeks without my bowels moving. I was wondering because your doctor called it "problems with rectal emptying. I believe I have had this problem because I have an extra long colon. Prescriptions and over-the-counter remedies never worked for me.

About 3 years ago I started taking TRUE HEALTH Ultimate Colon Care Formula. I take 2 capsules thirty minutes before breakfast every morning. I could tell a notable difference within weeks, but not until after using it regularly for the past 3 years, have I started having regular movements. I would highly recommend this. Contact me if you have any questions.

I seen colorectal surgeon a few weeks ago, I am awaiting a scan to see what is causing the blockage, in the meantime I have been given enema’s as nothing else works, neither do they really as my bowels never fully empty, but they help a bit if I am constipated xx

I found out I had an extra long colon over 30 years ago when doctors gave barium enemas to examine the colon. My bowels help 1 1/2 bags of barium. I have had before no BM for 2 weeks, rarely do I diarrhea, unless I have an enema. However, after taking Ultimate Colon Care Formula by TRUE HEALTH, for about 1 1/2 years, I now have daily movements. I saw some success within weeks, but I am now regular. I have recommended to friends who see results within weeks. I DO continue taking 1 tablet everyday. I started with recommended 2 tablets per day 30 minutes before breakfast.

I believe this is worth trying before having surgery. It is expensive if you don't have a coupon code. Here is one you can use: TUCCSPH166. This will give you 50% off, plus free shipping. I hope I have helped you.
