bowel obstruction
hello, my Mum is now in palliative care (12 days) for a total
bowel
obstruction
because of a 6 sigmoid volvulus. At 92 an operation is not possible.

Pain Relief that isn’t opiate based. Help!
I was given morphine but it put me into
bowel
obstruction
so I am now too scared to have any opiate based painkillers. Has anyone found any other pain relief that works and doesn’t slow the bowel? I’ll try anything! At the moment it’s just paracetamol. Thanks, Bianca

Bowel Obstruction
Hi All, I’ve posted a few times lately but I wanted to update that my poor mum is currently in hospital with a small
bowel
obstruction
. They will not operate. They say they are 100% sure it’s the cancer and that it won’t clear.

Bowel obstruction with HGOC stage 4a inoperable
Hi, I haven’t posted in a long while but appreciate reading everyone’s advice and support to everyone else. I had 3 attempts at surgery last year including the last with Christina F but all were unsuccessful due to extensive miliary disease on the bowel. I went back on 2 chemos so I could start on

bowel obstruction
It looks like there’s no more options for me as I’ve been in hospital for a week with a
bowel
obstruction
. HGSOC 3C. Had 2 lines chemo close together. Just had Carbo/gemcitabine but it made me so ill. Now I’m just waiting to see what happens. No food or drink. Any hints you brave ladies?

Colonic irrigation for constipation?
He had 2 occasions, after colonoscopy and after
bowel
obstruction
. His posture was straight and overall Parkinson was better for few days . I therefore booked him an appointment at the holistic clinic for a colonic irrigation . I thought that could perhaps make him feel better.

Hospital discharge re: food
My mum diagnosed with psp in Jan has been in hospital nearly 4 weeks after having
bowel
obstruction
operation. Communicating with the hospital staff about her psp has been exhausting - they finally got it when I suggested aspiration could be fatal!

Really Rough Mornings
I have GAD which is pretty well controlled most of the time but I've been sick with some
bowel

and a stubborn kidney stone over the past several weeks and my anxiety is bad.

Help with results!
However I ended up in urgent care 2 weeks before the MRI with a suspected
bowel
obstruction
. My main endo issue has always been this feeling of everything getting stuck/trapped to the left of my belly button (I think in my descending colon) but it got so bad I felt my bowels had stopped completely.

Curcumin phytosome vs. standard curcumin
I have been at the "watch and worry" stage of CLL since 2019 and have been taking curcumin twice a day because it has been found to be effective against CLL in the test tube. (I alternate at 6 hour intervals between curcumin and EGCG.) I was about to buy more [i]standard curcumin[/i] from Amazon when

Iodine and Povidone - A Chemistry Lesson
Over the years, we have seen many mentions of povidone-iodine. This video is the first time I have ever come across a proper explanation as to why povidone-iodine is chosen! It then continues with its aim of extracting pure iodine from povidone-iodine. The video could be very boring if you are

Cholestyramine
My husband has had explosive diarrhea since mid February. After blood tests, stool samples, colonoscopy, and more stool samples, they are not able to determine what is causing the diarrhea. The doctor has prescribed Cholestyramine. Has anyone had experience with this medication and did it help?

Colonoscopy v Colonography
Has anyone else been told they have a loopy bowel and it is not advisable to have a colonoscopy anymore. They recommended ct colonography, but i am worried about the amount of radiation this needs. Apparently 2yrs normal exposure in one go. Anyone else had this predicament?
