old son suffering from intestinal blockages due to
adhesions. I am a bit confused about
something that maybe you all can help me with.

>Thanks, Karen
So sorry Karen. If I would go to long without a bowel movement it would cause me severe pain. I used mineral oil strirred real fast in some orange juice and drink fast. Tasteless really just oily. Or I would have to do a enema. Is it from the opiates and possible some twists and turns of the bowel ? I guess my body got use to having opiates in it because I don't have much trouble anymore. My intestines were so inflammed.
Then if I did go it would be crampy and painful gas and stuff. Back to bed I'd go from going to the bathroom! Over time and not straining myself much I am not so sore and swollen inside. OH and I quit having surgeries! I started in 1997 to 2000. Had a hysterectomy then 3 more to get rid of adhesions. Some things have gotten better after my last surgery and over time.
Good luck Karen, feel free to write me . Hope I have helped,Jaynie
