Does anyone share any of this..
To function at all I take Senna, Mebeverine, 2 suppositories daily and
Picolax
weekly, all to avoid my chronically slow bowel from blocking altogether. All of this is prescribed and regularly monitored.

Daughter still continues to be completely impacted and constant pain
She’s on Senna, movicol,
picolax
she does go but feels loads more to come out and she hasn’t been able to be her typical happy physical self for a year now! We are currently waiting for her to have a colonoscopy and laparoscopy but other than this she’s had everything else going!

Moviprep
I’ve had many of these procedures before (had bowel cancer) but always had
picolax
. This time I’ve been given moviprep for the so called preparation. On reading the side effects it mentions arrhythmias can occur.

First Time With Moviprep
I had Moviprep for the first time prior to a colonoscopy earlier this month as my local hospital refused my plea for
Picolax
. I managed the amount of liquid with some difficulty and I ended up trapped in the loo for many hours. However, the procedure itself was fine.

Referral consultant operating on bowel/ureter and possible left ovary removal... Should I be concerned?
She has said she may end up having to cut into the bowel so I have been given
picolax
to clear the bowel. She will be performing ablation, not excision.

My colonoscopy experience
The day before my procedure I started the joy of the
Picolax
. 3 sachets to be taken at different times as specified by the nurse. It didn’t tast too bad and about an hour later it started to work. The whole
Picolax
experience was not too bad.

No movement after picolax
I have a CT colonoscopy tomorrow at 8am and was given only 1 sachet of
picolax
. I took it as directed at 4pm and so far (4hrs later) I have not had a movement. The colorectal unit is closed at the hospital. I have some senna - should I take it?

Picolax tips?
Hi, just wondering if anyone here has taken
Picolax
before? It's used for bowel prep for colonoscopies but I have to take it as I have an impacted bowel. Does anyone know how long the effects of one sachet takes? Thanks.

6 year old with chronic constipation. At my wits end.
He's taking
picolax
sulphate and movicol but today has been his worst day ever. He's screaming every time he has a bowel movement but is only really passing overflow. Even thinking of taking him to A&E tonight as he's in so much pain.
