I tried Senakot a few years ago and I do have the lactulose which caused pain also. Maybe I will try the Senakot again. I ended up going to my dr. from the partial blockage because I was so sore in my abdomen. He said I probably got gastritus from the laxatives. I am better now. Geez, what a few days that was. Thanx Kelly

Have you tried senakot? I have a hard time with laxatives but this really works for me without the cramps. The other thing that worked was lactulose liquid. It's time to go to the doctoe when you stop moving gas or feces. Or the pain is unbearable. Try the senakot it's a godsend for me. Kathi

I think we can use narcotic pain relief and naturopathic. I do thin that the people that are on the narcotic pain relief today would not be here today if they chose not to. I have suffered with this adhesion nightmare for around 10 years.
I have a question for anyone out there,. My doctor gave me laxatives several months ago. The one' he gave me caused so much pain. and I swore I would never take anymore. Well Thursday night, I was very bloated and took a dose and went to bed. I woke up yesterday morning with stomach cramps that were intense. I had them yesterday and all night. Woke up this a.m. and have had them all day and it is now 11:15 p.m. I had a couple of small bowel movements and now my abdomen is so sore that I don't have the energy to go to the dr,. or hospital..At what point should we go in to our dr. or hospital? I have tried to explain to my dr. over the years that I can't take these laxatives. Kelly

Sheri O, Thank you for sticking up for people on narcotics. It's hard to believe that's so many people can be narrow minded if something doesn't work for them then it's no good for anyone. I wouldn't function at all without my fentanyl patches either, they are a Godsend. My life would consist as your's would a dark room, bed and a gun. I wish there was more options but there's not so I'll take what I can get. I don't abuse them, or do anything illegal with them, but yet some people have made me feel like a junkie. Which is sad. If these people only had to walk an hour in our shoes they would have a better understanding. I appreciate people's suggestion's of other ways to relieve pain, but let's face a different combination of therapies work better for some people. No two people are exactly the same even though we share the same problem. Thanks again!! Kathi
