Hi
I am feeling very bad right now. I seem to have an issue with going to the bathroom. Some days it just comes out fast and I am done, Other times I can not go for days. I get so compacted it makes my rectum bleed. I had an x ray and showed I was backed up. I took a supository and I wasn't able to hold it in more than five min and only a small amount came out, and then nothing. I went to the organic store and picked up some prune juice and apple juice. I drank 3 cups of prune juice, another 15 min I drank a glass of apple juice and waiting a hr to drink another glass of apple juice. Still nothing, My tummy hurts so bad.
I always fear a blockage or something.... I never have been diagnosed with anything... Is this IBS?
