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

thank you
I too am feeling a little better, I did go to the hospital in the end, it seems I keep getting partial
bowel
obstruction
and it eventually clears itself, I’ve been told in future I must go straight to a/e as one day it may not clear, I have adhesions and it’s causing strictures in the bowel.

Confused about potential ibs c with overflow diagnosis
As i side note i had an unrelated xray done recently where the dr confirmed on my left side it looks like there is either gas or stool in which case would this not be classed as a
bowel
obstruction
?

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

Father suffers from chronic constipation
Last year he was hospitilised for a
bowel
obstruction
. I think since then hes developed an anxiety around constipation. Hes tried every laxative on planet earth and is obsessed with his stomach. He tells me his stomach controls his day and doesnt allow him to socialise as much.

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.

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.

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?

Walker etc. then month later emergency small
bowel
obstruction

Bad flareup :(
Well, it did that, but it seems that I had a partial
bowel
obstruction
as throughout the day Sunday, I felt increasingly bloated and then at night, looked like I was 8 months pregnant! My belly was so painful and distended all night. Monday morning, I was no better.

Interesting ... Tumor Location and Tumor Sidedness can play a role in treatment🤔

Left-sided colorectal cancer is located in the splenic flexure, descending colon, sigmoid colon, or rectum. C. Right-sided

Hi, had another flare up yesterday, after being reasonably ok for the last 3 weeks = I've really cleaned up my diet and yesterday was the result of a day out with friends, tea and cake and a slice of quiche. So difficult to find anything I actually enjoy eating at home, let alone at a restaurant.

Varying results on FIT tests
I have had IBS for decades so thought I had just been having a bad flare up of that for the past month. Stools were very dark but no visible red blood. I took a home FIT test one day to make myself feel better (it didn’t) and it quickly came up positive. Hoping it was faulty test, I repeated the next

I had an appointment with the gastroenterologist last week and she has advised that I have IBS-C. Previously she advised I had SIBO and was prescribed rifaximin. That antibiotic did not solve my problem. I am suffering with excessive gas, trapped wind and bloating. I have been on laxido for around

Fecal Calprotectin & CRC
Hey all, I am waiting on a colonoscopy I have scheduled for June 27th due to some symptoms and have a question for you all. Did any of you that got a CRC diagnosis have a really low fecal calprotectin score? I have been worried (as we all are) about what will be found on this colonoscopy, but I had a
