Hey all,
So I just had botox for my fissures on Monday, but I feel like I'm being ignored. I broke my spine a few years ago and have no control over my bowels/bladder. I can't 'go' without straining, unless I wait til I soil myself.
They've given me fibrogel to soften my stools, but I still can't pass them without straining. It's nerve damage, I think, but they refuse to test me for it. Their next step is to ply me with laxatives, I've tried eXplaining numerous times they don't work for me, but again they won't listen. Laxatives which are supposed to start working in 12 hours take about 3 days to start and up to about 11 before I can get off the toilet. It's always agony and it never seems to clear anything.
I've been to a&e begging for an enema when I'm impacted, they scan me, agree I'm impacted, give me laxatives and discharge me.
I've tried suppossatries (? Sorry no idea how to spell that) and whilst they might clear what's in my lower bowel, I'm still full!
My belly has been killing in one place for the past few days, it usually passes or moved area, I think I'm impacted again and I don't know what to do.
