Oh my goodness, @jerrysgirl3, you’re dealing with so much right now. I’m such a hugger and wish I could reach through the ‘puter…
Knowing your past history with your perforated bowel, I’m sure you’re feeling pretty stressed with the current constipation. If ‘things’ aren’t moving, it can congregate in one area causing more of an impaction. Sometimes that’s where an enema can be very helpful. (I’ve only had one once when I was in the hospital for 5 weeks on chemo. As much as I dreaded the thought, it was a godsend, didn’t hurt and totally did the trick!) But with your bowel history issues, lupus and the CLL it would be best to check with your doctor to see if it’s safe for you to try. If you’re on immunosuppressants and have a low white blood count, that can be dangerous. No pun intended… I hope things come out all right! 🙁

Having brain issues sounds serious. Are you having loss of memory, balance, that type of thing? What type of testing will you be having? Please keep me updated. Is this testing happening soon?
