I am so confused on why I go from one extreme to the next, I have been
suffering constipation for 3 years, and the last 5 days I have had
severe upper cramping, and diarreha. I was up ti 2 o'clock last night.
I did not go Wednesday, and took senekot on Tuesday night, the pain
clinic said I should take it more often, and yesterday I got the cramps
again in the upper part of my stomach, and thought I had taken too much,
but normally it works in the morning, and I go no more, and I was up
most of the night going. I know this is not a virus, I have been
eating, and trying to think of what I may have eaten, but I have not
eaten nothing different.I may call my GI dr today, this is starting to
woory me, I NEVER get diarreha, and I went all day and night, normally
if this happens, it goes away right away. I am still going this
morning, and I do not want to take anything like imodium, it may cause
more troubles.
This is something I am definitely not used to. This happened Sunday,
and the stoll was normal the first time yesterday, can laxatives cause
damage to cause this. I am sorry, I am not used to this, and the pain
has not got any worse, until the cramps start. Then it is bad.
I guess the best thing to do , is call the dr first to see if he may
know what I could do. I am sorry to bother you about this, but I am
tired of this, I told my husband and he said at leats you are getting it
out, yeah, but this is ridiculous. he wants to go to flea market
tomaorrow, and I like to go with him. This is not a sign of
obstruction, I hope, I take prevacid for the acid, and it got worse for
awhile last night.
