Re: 'Sick' and bloated after bowel movements

Do you take any pain medicines regularly? They can make some people
constipated which could cause the bloating. I never had that problem
with pain meds until lately but my adhesion pain has intensified also. I
have a history of adhesions on the bowels. I had a hysterectomy in
2000, but before that I had endo too. I seemed to get diarrhea more
with the endo. Now I have so much trouble going to the bathroom and
when I do I have awful pain up inside my rectum and also on my lower
left side. My opinion would be if you have had adhesions on the
rectosigmoid colon, then you could very possibly have them there again.
ANd because I know they interfer with myself, I would imagine they could
be with you also. I have to take laxatives most of the time now to go.
Otherwise I am doubled over. I hope that you can find something to help
give you ease and comfort.
Big hugs,
Jenny
