Experiences with

Sodium picosulfate

We have recently completed disimpaction and have now started on a maintenance dose of 2 sachets along with sodium picosulfate. My son is now having lots of small type 5/6 poos a day.

and sodium picosulfate. We could never find the perfect balance and her constipation suddenly resulted in just incontinence. Both bladder and bowel are totally immobile, she feels she has no sensation and is having accidents hourly.

He has now been put on sodium Picosulfate, since November last year. He has a 5ml dose each evening. His soiling is getting worse! His faeces seems quite sticky, dark and runny.

We were already trailing different doses of laxido along with sodium picosulfate but everything would work for a week an then stop so they finally listened to me an did the transit study test as they couldnt feel the poo in his tummy an were not taking me serious..

Have anlso andded in 2.5 mg sodium picosulfate. Eating better and better behaviour too. Back to school for one week and wet accident on Saturday, followed by poo accident Saturday and again tonight. Since disimpaction poo been very soft/explosive.

Other blood results are: Serum ferritin - 49 (in range) Serum folate - 15.1 (in range) Serum Vitamin B12 - 279 (in range) Serum Sodium - 140 (in range) Serum potassium - 4.7 (in range) Serum urea - 5 (in range) Any advice appreciated, as I know in myself I just dont seem right and am not my usual

My last blood test results for sodium and potassium in November were fine. I have tried various classes of BP medication and had common side effects with all of them so according to my GP Candesartan is my only option and the only side effects are on kidney function. Not sure I believe this!

Hi, How long after you started the disimpaction regime did the GP prescribe a stimulant to you like Sodium Picosulphate or Senna? Did it work? Thanks

Thyroid extract 60 mg is usually considered equivalent to thyroglobulin 60 mg, Levothyroxine sodium 0.1 mg or liothytonine sodium 25 micrograms.”

🌱 FLAVOUR: like onion, garlic, or chives 🌱 HOW TO PICK: leaves, stems, flowers, seeds 🌱 NUTRIENTS: vitamins A and C, calcium, iron, phosphorus, sodium and copper 🌱 HOW TO USE: treat leaves as baby spinach. Add to quiches. Ferment into kimchi. Seeds make good caper substitute.

It can also be a blood test and I stress myself out the whole day if potassium is high or sodium is low. Honestly I don’t think I’m achieving much posting this but I did want to know if anyone else also feels this way. Would be good to know how they deal with it.

Treatment was changed to DL-sodium thyroxine 1 mg. a day, then reduced to 0.6 mg. after two months. Two months later treatment was changed to L-sodium thyroxine (0.3 mg. a day). Comment.- Improvement was entirely satisfactory when on 1 mg. of DL-thyroxine sodium.

He also tried to say my sodium level would be low which it isn’t, he shut up when I said i drink Celtic salt everyday. Hes agreed to do their own bloods as I took my private test dint know where to go from here as I thought I had found the answer to my illness 🙄

I used the information to suggest to my neurology consultant the type of medication I needed (another 'sodium channel blocker ' like carbamazepine). He agreed, and since switching to lacosamide I am as good as I was on carbamazepine, but without the side-effects.

Serum sodium: 140 mmol/L 140 mmol/L Serum potassium: 4.3 mmol/L 3.5 to 5.3 Serum urea level: 6.7 mmol/L

I read where propafenone is a sodium channel block and that a sodium channel blocker can effect the smooth muscle. I read where smooth muscle makes up the large intestine as well as the lower esophageal sphincter.

But the results came back that evening that my magnesium had dropped to 0.6 and my sodium was low so a GP phoned me and said he is sending magnesium tablets to my pharmacy and some anti nausea tablets and to introduce salt into my diet.

High in sodium depending on preparation. Flaxseeds (1 tbsp) C+ B B+ $0.10 - $0.20 Natural High in ALA (precursor to EPA/DHA), fiber, and lignans. Conversion of ALA to EPA/DHA in the body is limited.

Several of you emphasised drinking more water, especially Murder Fan58 re low sodium which I suffer from. Amazing what help this site is.
