This is a long time w/out a bowel movement, I hope you
have one soon. Due to the severity and everything
else you tried...I'm helpless to you there...but, for
abdominal cramping, I recently bought a heating
pad...this helps a little bit. If you can't hold down
liquids...it makes it difficult to suggest you try the
tea "smooth move"....someone else at this sight said
it works for her...I've never tried it. I take an
acidophilus pill every morn with no food in the
stomach and it usually helps me w/in the hour. This
probably doesn't help you...but, I hope you get those
toxins out very soon. I send a prayer for you.
