Hi all. I have been suffering from severe constipation for around 5
years. I had a laparoscopy 7 years ago as I was having difficulty
getting pregnant. All they found was an ovarian cyst. Eventually I
fell pregnant a year later. Since the birth of my daughter I have had
worsening constipation. When she was 2 years old I had another
laparoscopy and was told I still had ovarian cyst and also bowel
adhesions which are attached to abdominal wall. I have twice been to ER
with bowel impaction which enemas wouldn't shift. Have been feeling
really nauseous and went to ER with a hugely distended stomach over
Xmas. Was put on a drip and kept at hospital for 10 hours. X ray
showed dilation of small intestine. I am seeing a bowel specialist and
gynaecologist on 14th January. Does anyone know whether it is likely
that something will get done. I have to take laxatives every day to
pass anything and my stomach is getting bigger and I am feeling more and
more nauseous. I also feel very tired all the time. Just small amounts
of food make me feel very full. PLEASE HELP. I am just hoping that I
can hang on til the 14th January as I feel like going to ER right now. I
have a constant ache in my tum, but no real sharp pain, just occasional
sharp pains. p.s. I have also been told that I have something in my
uterus which they need to investigate. Scarey or what.
