I have been through several test to figure out what is going on with me.
My pelvic floor is fine but I do have a prolapse on my small bowel that both my GI dr and surgeon did not think would be causing my issues but I am starting pelvic floor therapy this month sometime.
I have has CT scans, barium xrays, recently doing a SITZ test....I know on day 4 I still had all 72 markers spread throughout. Awaiting the day 7 results but I only went to the bathroom once that week so I am sure most of them are still there.
Here are my symtoms. Anything I take to produce a BM just creates sloshing and water in my intestines. Sometimes if I press really hard on my left side I can get some water out but not all the time. I have tried amatiza, linzess, mirlax, flax seed,magnessium, ducolax, senna....they all create the same result. Some watery stools but very little. Enmeas and sup do not do anything for me.
I wake up bloated like I still have everything from the day before sitting in my intestines, the pressure is intense. Sometimes by mid day I can not breath. I can go maybe once a week to 3 times a week on my own sometimes it is normal sometimes it is mud that is hard to get out. But I spend most of my days with the ocean in my stomach. I can literlaly feel things moving in there passing through slowly in my intestines.
I am gluten, dairy and sugar free. I drink a lot of water. I have a colonscope scheduled for Friday but honestly do not want to do the prep because it probably won't work and I will be stuck with all of that crap in me.
I am kind of hoping I do have colonic inertia so I can get surgery and be done with all of this. I do nothing after work, I lay on the couch with a hand weigh on my tummy to relieve the pressure and a heating pad. My daughter suffers, my husband and my work. I quit running which I loved and now my body is a big mush ball which doesn't help things at all. Praying for some answers soon. My GI dr keeps trying to treat the constipation. Is it
