So I had a accident about a week ago I want to say, and since then I havent been able to have a bowel movement. A couple days ago I took my stool softener along with fiber chewables and still nothing so I had milk of magnesia... which ALWAYS works and only a little bit of brown liquid came, very little. I have had a full feeling the whole time as well.. Im calling my doctor tomorrow but I wont be able to get in for a while I'm sure.

Hi Jackie,

I had exactly the same thing, ae something which didnt agree with me, hour later had an accident, nothing for 8 days, but i never felt like full on full/bloated, finally the next day i started getting results. I dont use any meds/softners/enemas etc just do digital stim and so far its just been bit by bit. stool is a bit hard but i prefer it that way.

I got really worried too, hope its nothing to worry about in your case

Hi there,Im Kathy.
I used to have problems but now i use Anal irrigation System from Coloplast.It is the best thing on the market.Look on there web site it will give you all the information you need.
It really did make such a big difference to my life, It takes about 45mins and then you can go out knowing you are safe and feel so much better.
Please let me know if i can help you.
regards Kathy.

I'm afraid you are going to find the same as I did, that Coloplast doesn't sell it here in the US.

In fact, has not, as yet, filed for approval with the FDA, to do so.
