hello all,
i came across this website a few days ago, and now finely joined.
im not sure where i should have posted this so i posted it on the ibs and on here.
i really need some help, ive been suffering from chronic constipation for a number of years but have always manage to go at least once/twice a week with help from differents types of laxatives.
but three years ago i started bleeding really bad, ive had now three biopsies from back passage, the first time they told me i had bowel cancer, but then they took another one and said it was a mistake, just abnormal cells.
ive been on different laxatives/meds the lot to help but its getting worse, ive had two colonoscopy, the first they even said the fleet laxative hadnt even worked.
ive now been given prucalopride 2mg, been on these for four days now and still not gone!!! ive eaten allbran, prunes, enough water, hot tea, ect...everything and anything that may help me go, but nothing....saw my consultent four days ago and he gave me the prucalopride and said he will see me again in march to see if they have worked, but he hasnt said anything else, not even given me any hope or advice what will happen next, or if these tablets dont work.
i guess im asking for advice, in what to expect should, or will happen next.
ive just had enough of all this, im sick of thinking about if i can eat something or not, if it will help me go or not and if not then i dont tend to eat it, this is effecting my whole life and im just sick of it.
ive even been to a&e a couple of months back as i was in such pain, only for them to send me back home saying they cant help me.
can you help, or offer advice, or just let me know what happens next.
i had read that these tablets have had good effects and within a few hours people go to the toilet...but it hasnt happend.
anyway sorry to go on, just in pain and had enough
thanks to all and hello again to all
i better add that both my aunt and uncle have had the whole op, and both have ostomies, they had crohns disease but ive been told i have got that.
