Thanks JHH.
Week 14. No real pain on BM. The seven o clock monster is stinging. Ugh like a sore paper cut. The pharmacy gave me laxido to make up for the Movicol they didn't have. This stuff just isn't as good. Got a new prescription from the doctor and now have Movicol, lots of it!!! Why the heck is this monster not dying. The lovely hot weather is great, but I am getting sweaty and the monster is getting irritated. I want more Botox, right now!!!!!

I had Laxido from the GPs and as soon as I ran out of Movicol and moved on to the Laxido, I tore. I bought some more Movicol from Lloyds pharmacy (as I couldn't get an appointment with GP).
Movicol works. Laxido doesn't.
Loving the hot weather here in Wales!! And luckily I'm not stinging from my removed skin tag. Get a long skirt on and go commando!! Aaaah the breeze! Image
Good luck with the MRI!

Thanks JHH, OMB and Welsh! Love to all of you. Ah welsh, you had the crappy Laxido too! The Movicol is just brilliant. Today has been quite good. No real problems on BM. Just had that second dreaded BM. Seems to be okay at the moment. What the heck is going on! I want to get off this roller coaster! Once and for all. Will try the cold sitz, thanks OMB. Xxx c'mon fissure die.
