Hospital

[Mummy1982]

Hi Ladies.

I just want to say thank you for all your kind words and get well messages i really appreciate them.

I am still in hospital, I have been very poorly and struggling to control the pain.

I had a x ray in the morning today and a bowel specialist came to see me. I have been told that I have a bowel blockage a large area is blocked they have given me 4 enemas and nothing has happened other than causing me to be rolling around in pain because of the cramps. The specialist has now said I'm taking a large dose of oral laxatives to soften it all as it looks like concrete and then start the enama again tomorrow feeling pretty sick already but it needs to be done as I'm in awful pain.

They have said that once it's clear I will be refered to gastrointestinal as they said I could have chrones or something else can't remember what he said, so a bit anxious I do hope I haven't got that.

I think I'm going to be here for a while yet😕

Just thought I would let you all know and thanks again for your lovely messages.

Hugs to you all

Jo xx

Yes at least it explains why you've been feeling so terrible and having all those awful pains. Hope they can get things moving. Glad to hear they are being so kind. It's what you need when you're feeling so vulnerable. Take care x

[miss_doll in reply to Mummy1982]

You poor thing. It's horrible when you feel like you haven't been listened to. I'm just glad you are in the right pace now and hopefully they can shift the concrete with some dynamite!! Hope you are managing to rest. Hospital can be noisy. X

[Mummy1982 in reply to miss_doll]

Yes I have been telling them forever that my bowels aren't right . It makes me cross. Thanks for the message hun

I hope you are well xx

[miss_doll in reply to Mummy1982]

I know what you mean. On the one hand you feel glad that they're finally sorting you out but equally it is frustrating that you've had to get into such a pickle. Hopefully they will get you feeling much better soon. Today is a new day. Keep your chin up hun. X

Hi hun

Hi, so sorry to hear what's going on! Can I ask...why did you think there was something going on for a while? I've thought that recently and just this last week noticed a lumpy bit in the top right where my colon is. It feels a bit like there's something moving through my bowels but it hasn't moved so its like its stuck. I had an ultrasound which showed nothing and been prescribed laxido but it doesn't seem to be doing a lot!? Xx

Hi Jo,

You're really going through the mill aren't you? I'm sorry you are having such an awful time. I hope they sort you out soon and feeling a lot better.

Hope your pain is better today.

Hi hun.

Thanks for your reply. I'm still in hospital I am on a morphine drip as they can't control the pain. They think they have cleared the bowel I will be having a colonoscopy on Monday.

I hope you are well

Jo xx

[miss_doll in reply to Mummy1982]

Oh bless you. So sorry that you're still in hospital but good news they've cleared the bowel. You must feel so wretched with it all. I hope that the morphine is helping. Get well hugs x x

[Mummy1982 in reply to miss_doll]

Thanks hun.

I'm ok all I want to do is sleep I'm on morphine all the time now that's the only thing thing that controls the pain.

I'm a bit fed up of being in now and I'm really missing my kids but I'm having a colonoscopy I'm here on Monday which Im pleased they are doing it might answer some questions and I've got some other tests Booked with gastro as a outp so getting there slowly just so tired. Hope you are well xx

[miss_doll in reply to Mummy1982]

You poor thing. You must be missing the kids loads. I'm just glad they are taking you seriously and looking into everything. Good luck with the colonoscopy. I'll be thinking of you. xx
