Anyone know of Dr De Bruyne Chris

[bigsister 0]

Thanx all you lovely girlies asking about my stupid problems, and also a thank you about baby's nursery.

Firstly the consultant examined me (UGH!!!) he says I have an Impaction (as I thought, cos you just know).

he says the only way to get rid of this is to do it manually

They do by putting you 'out' and taking you to the theatre, but he assures me it only takes about 5/10 minutes

Meanwhile he gave me a prescription for enimas and senokots.

I have to take 6 sennas over a 6 hour period, and use the enima. Then tomorrow use the enima again.

I cant eat or drink after 12noon tomorrow and have to go back to the Spire at 5pm when he has his clinic.

If its worked Hallelulia!! if it hasnt then he will do the removal in theatre

he said if I had waited any longer my colon could have ruptured and that I would have been in Intensive care.

So be warned dudes, dont let this happen to you. He wants to examin my colon to ensure its not damaged

Hi Freckles, glad you're getting things sorted and will keep my fingers crossed you won't be going 'to the theatre' tomorrow where your colon will have the starring role! Will be thinking about you, report back when you can, hopefully feeling a lot lighter for the experience, whichever option proves to be the remedy. Take care, love Bigsis xx

hi carriejess

good to see your back dating again,lifes to short to dwell on things.I know what you mean about talking while your eating. I was at a silver wedding on saturday night and it was a 3 course meal so i kept gabbing,everybody at the table was telling me to shut up and just eat.I ate half a plate of Soup then half a chicken breast then had to go to the toilet to be sick then came back out and ate the sweet i felt i was being rushed and put under presure to keep up with everyone else.I kept up with them when it came to the vodca. i really suffered all day yesterday for being so bloody greedy.it was a great night so it was worth it.

Hey guys where's Gary gone, does anyone know, we have'nt heard much from him since Belgium

YEAH !

I've just been for my 1st fill with Wendy this morning, I was really worried she wouldn't do it due to swallowing saga. She said to try Proteins drinks, alot of you have mentioned these so I'll get some today. I got 3ml put in, Wendy is very confident at what she does, which is what I needed, as I wasn't sure what to expect. The scales she uses are awesome they breakdown ur weight - Fat, muscle,blood etc.

Thanx dudes for your well wishes, well the pills etc, didnt shift it, so am bracing myself for the dropout now.

I just hope it doesnt hurt too much as my poor bum is in tatters after last nights shenanikins (pills and enima) I mean.

I have never suffered from Constipation, so he thinks it was cos of poor diet and not enough liquid, and maybe not enough exercise, which we all know anyway.

Yes, where is Garry gone, I hope he's ok.

Well the clock is ticking and I have to leave shortly, hope to be 10lbs thinner when I get back home. (some hope)

Garry so glad you're ok, loving the new piccy btw.

Thanx to all of you for your good wishes. I dont want to bore you with all the details, but the surgeon decide not to do the manual removal as it was softer and he made me stay upstairs in a hospital room and more enimas were administered.

They nearly got rid of all of it, so he let me home at 10pm last night.

However I have to go back in for a Colonoscopy as he is concerned that I had a lot of blood inside, and he wants to know where thats coming from.

I cant do anything by halves duh!!!

Btw he told me the best thing to take when the diet is not so good, is Fibergel, every day.

For the first few days you are liable to suffer from bloating and flatulence ...nothing new there is there

A big

to all the newbies, enjoy your time here xxx

Thank you for the welcome. I would like to ask a question, please. Feel free to redirect me as I know you all must get tired of answering these for all the new people.

However, since I will be traveling from the US, I am a little concerned about my clear liquid diet post surgery. I was thinking of gathering some incidentals to keep in my bag and came up with packets for chicken or beef broth.

Since I'm not familiar with the juices/drinks in Belgium or the UK (Which is where I will the week following), what type of drinks would you recommend?

Thank you SO much.
