When I was having the same problem the dr told me to drink hot water (as hot as you can drink) as fast as I can. He also told me to go to the pharmacy and get the stuff in a green bottle (I can't for the life of me remember the name of it) and drink it. Ask the pharmacist because it is something I had to use to clean myself out for a procedure. Do you hear bowel sounds? Are you passing gas? Please keep us posted.
