Wish I could help, but I came here to find out about my bowel problems! Sorry

I’m went back to an old solution that all the gastrointestinal doctors forgot about.I take 3 senna docusate pill each meal on a empty stomach and I have several small bowel movements during the day. I remembered this old solution by myself and not the current gastrointestinal doctors! So I have a glimmer of hope!! Thanks to everybody for your concern.

seems we have to be drs ourselves nowadays good thinking Larry hope it helps you

[Larrie12 in reply to Natsteveo]

Yes, thanks! It’s only been two days on it but it’s working well. I’m hoping my intestines get more used to this medication and it’s not harmful drugs either!

I assume he is seeing a gastroenterologist. If not he should, privately if necessary.

[Natsteveo in reply to b1b1b1]

yes but getting a appointment is absolutely ridiculous he’s been waiting 2 months to hear from them

[Larrie12 in reply to Natsteveo]

Yes, it ridiculous to wait this long for help. That’s why I was so depressed and suffering so long without a solution!!!!

it must be absolutely awful for you that suffer breaks my heart to watch my husband be in so much pain and there’s not a thing I can do to help ease it

[Larrie12 in reply to Natsteveo]

I fixed my BM problem finally by taking the old medication that worked before. Sorry to hear about your husband. May God help you.
