After my partial colonectomy (no bag), I've become the Poster Boy for MORE FIBER in The U.S. Diet.
The RDM is 54 grams PER DAY MINIMUM!!! Thats two bags of popcorn plus a bowl of cereal at LEAST!!
AND water!! you need 64 fluid ounces MINIMUM!!!
You aren't eating enough fiber and drinking enough water, Unless you're like me and do the Metamucil thing with the Big Gulp full of Water before any sodas go down the gullet. A bag of popcorn at night, and everything gets examined for fiber content. It's a cumulative thing.

ack. damn you!


honestly, try sticking something in there, like a finger or a pencil. my father was a parapalegic, and his doctor recommended that the home nurse do that when he became constipated. your bodys natural reaction is to push out, which will help you go. also massage your lower abdomen. \

good luck!

pavlov!

that colon blow site also seems to share a lot in common with that "how to goodbye depression" book.
 
I gave in, and took the last step before resorting to the green Genie (Magnesium Citrate) - smoked a cigarette. Relief in 5 mins.
