It's just cruel to have CIC💩 I get x-rays every few months, for past 6+ yrs, only one time I was actually not on overload, every other time, the X-rays showed moderate to severe fecal load. I also have elevated calcium and Hyperparathyroidism (surgery is next month), it has really reduced my smooth muscle function in my intestines, small and large. So, I have to keep myself almost complete diarrhea, since I have no muscle contractions to push out the poop. I take miralax every day, 1-2x , 3 capfuls. I am terrified of getting a blockage in anus, where digital removal is required, by me, to dig out a hole big enough for the rest of the poop to come out. I also don't like having a small bowel partial obstruction, that nasal gastric tube is awful!!!!! At this point I consider diarrhea my best friend. Guess I am very lucky to be retired and not need to leave the house much.
