@formydad I am so glad to hear from you and that your dad is doing OK. I think it’s been almost a year since this journey for all of you started. You say that your dad is using lo dose opioids. Have the doctors recommended that he use a simple laxative when he takes them. Check with his doctors. And, walking will help! Please stay in touch with us.

@becsbuddy You're right! I didn't think of the fact that opioids might cause some constipation. And as you said, walking will help with that problem along with making sure that he gets plenty of fluids. We are looking forward to hearing positive things from the next set of testing!
