Colette, I can totally relate! I have not eaten anything in about 2 weeks because of pain and constipation. The only thing saving me right now is I drink a couple of Ensures a day with lots of H2O and fruit juices. I feel full all the time. I can actually feel my bowels move and it hurts so bad. I have lost a lot of weight also about 100 lbs which is good and bad because I have always been over weight but now I am becoming under weight BOY I never thought I would say that. My bowels have not worked right and I have not been able to eat much since my appendectomy AUG. "99" The Drs. said then I was full of adhesions from my other surgeries. I understand about being tired of this it seems to consume my every moment, some times I just want to give up but my husband And children keep me fighting. Good luck at the Drs.It never hurts to have a second opinion if you can get one. Hang In There. Big Pain-Free Hug! ~Brokenwing~
