Hey,
I would really be grateful if someone can offer me some advice right now. I have been having some issues lately with my digestive system and my doctor hasn't been great with this issue, going to the toilet for the past 6 weeks has been a problem and I have had to turn to home remedies to try alleviate the bloat and feeling of being blocked. Been impacted twice in a year so my body is all over the place since the last impaction. I think the laxative I was prescribed has also made my colon lazy!!
I havent had a solid BM since December 27th 2012. All I can pass these past 6 weeks (when I can go) is sludgy stool. Not diarrhea, just loose stool. My food is often undigested too so it makes the whole passing experience horrible, sometimes it can hurt. I have a colonoscopy in 2 weeks so I will find out the reasons for all this then, but my real question is about home enemas.
Lately I have turned to enemas to try clear out my colon, along with my 2 daily Movicol sachets. So, for the past week, I have been doing warm water enemas every day to try and get my colon clean so I can retrain it and stick to one weekly enema to keep me healthy. I usually do 1.5 - 2 litres and hold for 15 minutes. The entire enema will evacuate in one go, I feel good initially after it, but as the evening goes on I gradually start to feel bloated again. When I pass the enema I normally can feel some bulk come out with the water surge, and the water is usually mucky brown with bits of food and things floating. But everything comes out in one go, and I am wondering is this normal? Should I have more movement, more solids than this or is the Movicol making it softer and easier to expel in one go? I don't even know does my evacuation count as a successful enema as I am the only person I know who does them. I use the proper enema bag and equipment and I prefer to stick with warm water enema as I am scared of aggravating the colon.
Can anybody shed some light on if I am doing things right? I plan to go another week with the daily enema, but I want to stop it then as I am afraid of becoming dependant on it. Does what I pass count as a successful enema?

MoreThis is a reply to # 2,030,723It's unusual for a full enema to empty with just one pass. If I take in 1.5-2 liters, it usually comes out in three waves, as it empties from each section of the colon.
I havce also used just warm water at times, but try to keep really hydrated, otherwise I can end up reaborbing some of the water (and toxins). When you are bloated, that's not so great.
Your digestive issues and constipation could be symptom of parasites, and those would not be detected with a colonoscopy unforttunately.

Hey,
Many thanks for your reply. I think your right, I think that maybe the water isn't getting to other parts of my colon hence its rapid expulsion, I may schedules a colonic next week. I just repeated a 2nd enema today, 2 litres, and it was expelled in 2 waves.
I am getting very stressed about the digestive problems. I think I might have to change doctors as my current one doesn't seem to be very helpful when it comes to colon matters, I get the impression she thinks its in my head, which is not the case.
How would one treat parasites from home?
Thanks

This is a reply to # 2,030,763My issue actually started off very much like yours, sudden change in bowels, no BM, even when I finally broke down and tried laxatives, and no relief with enemas. That is when I knew something was wrong.
I found out what was wrong when I took raw garlic and onion several times daily for several days in a row, on the advice of the colonic therapist I was seeing. She also was stunned at the lack of stool after several sessions, as I was eating normally. On the third day of eating garlic, a bundle of worms came out. It was shocking, but atleast I knew.
I had never had a bowel issue in the past, and despite being fatigued and stomach bloated, I looked pretty healthy.
There is a couple of parasite Support Forums on this site you can check out to get information and see what others are doing.
My advice, since your story seems very similar to mine in the beginning, would be to start eating garlic several times daily leading up to your colonoscopy. If it is parasites, you will be given a prep for the procedure that should clear stuff out of you. Check it for worms or parasites. It might sound gross, but unless you check with a plastic fork or something, you might never see them. They rarely just float on top.
I would also try more natural herbs to stimulate bowels on their own, like Dr. Christopher's Lower bowel forumula you can get for $10 online many places, or on occasion, Smooth Move tea usually found in the health section at grocery or health food store. The tea should not be used long term, the Dr. Christopher stuff can be used long term if needed.
Good luck, hope you get it figured out.

Hey,
Thanks for the good advice. I have started adding raw onions and garlic these past few days to my diet, been taking it with food and so far not much, just ALOT of rumbling in my tummy and LOTS of wind! I'm going to liquify the garlic and onions and eat like paste for next few days. Should I fast for this? I am eating considerably less as it is, so if its parasites then I am sure to know. The thing is though, my food is undigested and when I do have a BM, its basically all the undigested food coming out, which may be the reason why there is little or no stool. I suppose I am having movements, just not the kind that is normal! I am going to see if the health store can advice me about a good pro-biotic I can take in case the flora is off balance.
I actually hope its parasites!! I never thought I would say that!
I plan on coming off the Movicol also once I have my colonoscopy. I will try the product you recommended. I don't want to be taking daily Movicol, and I certainly don't want to be using daily enema's.
Hopefully this spell of issues with my body is coming to an end! I feel exhausted after it all!
Thanks again

This is a reply to # 2,031,727Well, just eat light, and eliminate Sugar and flour as much as possible. It sounds like bad advice because when you are sick, you need nutrients, but if you are trying to saturate your system to find parasites, it's better not to dilute with too much food.
The stomach rumbling and gas is actually a good indicator that you may actually have parasites. I swear, I am cnvinced that those who say "I used to love garlic and onion, but now I can't eat them" have worms. Of course! They don't like it. Our stomachs don't just suddenly not tolerate foods.
That really smart to have the attitude you have about it, it's not easy to treat, but once free of them (if that is what you have), you might be saving a lifetime of issues later on.
Good luck.- Re: Done several enemas, not sure th... milkymoo24

I think I am going to do a 5 day fast from Monday, with the garlic and onion paste to try heal the insides and get them working normal again! Hopefully things will improve soon.
Right now my stomach is grumbling so much, I had french onion soup for dinner so they must hate that!

Hmmm. A total fast may be a catch 22. Say it ends up being parasites/worms, then you want your bowels to be moving to push them out. Maybe if you are still taking that stuff, but still. Actually I should mention that a dose of castor oil after a day of garlic and onion might push something out. That's an age old remedy that I can say does work.
Not knowing what your real situation is yet, I would not want to recommend anything to you that could make you sicker. Me personally, I have fasted for a day or two and had great results.
There are lots of foods that you can eat that are pretty well accepted as anti-parasite. Pineapple, pumpkin seeds, Greens, peppers, papaya (and the seeds crushed), there is a pretty long list. - Re: Done several enemas, not sure th... dave505

Hi,
Many thanks for your reply. You know after everything I have been through with my digestive issues, I got the all clear with my colonoscopy, doc confirmed what I already knew IBS-C :-( Could have been A LOT worse!! But, somehow my mind is no more at ease, as the problems remain, in fact they have worsened in the past 2 weeks. I am meant to take 2 Movicol every day but they are no longer effective, as you said in your message Movicol seems to have worsened my condition to a point now that I cannot go at all. Not even with the Movicol anymore. I have to rely on enema's every second day and a once a week dose of Senekot! Its so frustrating that I am completely reliant on both these things to do the most natural thing a body is meant to do. I am so frustrated wondering is there a way back for me at this stage. Its been 9 weeks now since I went naturally, December 26th. And the past 4 days now the enemas have been disappointing too. Will have to get some Senokot tomorrow and hope they will work! I am afraid to kick the Movicol though in case it worsens my problemAdvertisement

This is a reply to # 2,042,044IBS is BS :)
I would start a parasite cleanse, something like humaworm or barefoots with Dr. Christopher's Lower bowel formula $10 online to see if that get's things going. I don't normally recommend humaworm, it's a weak product, but it does help some get started. The bowel forumul is safe to take long term. Enema's are great for cleansing and removing toxins, but you can't do them forever.

When I was far better than now I'd take some Probiotics and milk kefir which helped me a bit. Togheter with diet I was able to have a bowel movement each other day.
No milky no sugars no bread no beer sweets ...I did not know then about candida diet I was just observing what food was constipating me. There are also bacteria or protozoa which can feed on these not to mention worms.
But since the culprit was not clearly identified and I was giving up diet - the problems came back. A misdiagnostic put me on Antibiotics and that was it. For me then was giardia candida and a bacteria overgrowth in the colon. Later were more...
Sd is very right - IBS is a major bs. I was on this so called diagnostic for years. I've discovered since now like 5-6 infections in the gut making private tests on my money. No wonder I have IBS. Still my GP prefers the stress influence approach. :) lucky me.
Try control it with the diet first see what helps. As soon as you find the culprits you can better target treatment.
Movicol and lactulose are not proper for this condition.Advertisement

Stop treating the symptoms, treat the cause. You're very likely to be constipated because you lack good flora and healthy bile flow. Get rid of candida and parasites, and cleanse your liver. For the candida and parasites in the colon, nothing has worked better for me than milk kefir retention enemas. For those in the small intestine, drink milk kefir, take raw garlic, turmeric or Black-Walnut tincture. To cleanse your liver, consider liver flushing, coffee enemas, and beet juice. You should get yourself on a healthy Diet too.
edit: don't be affraid of getting addicted to enemas, especially if you don't feel well during the cleansing process. At some point, and for many monthes, I was taking up to 4 high enemas daily (!), and had to stop suddenly. The next day I was going to the loo twice a day on a low fiber diet.- Re: Done several enemas, not sure th... Winston610

This is a reply to # 2,042,194I was born with Spina Bifida and often times the side effect is a neurogenic bowel so I have been dealing with constipation issues all my life. For the past 12 years I have been using enemas on a regular basis to maintain regularity and it has been a life saver. The medical community understands very little about motility issues and often time their advice is just dead wrong. It took a lot of experimenting with different solutions, time of day, ect. but I have found that a large volume enema with medical grade castile soap is the most effective for me.

Hi everyone,
Thank you all very much for your comments. I appreciate it!
So I stopped the Movicol recently and changed temporarily to a liquid called Laxose, it seemed milder than the Movicol and 2 spoons seemed to work better than 2 sachets of horrible Movicol. I did that for about 10 days and then stopped and I am off all laxative now and intend to stay that way. I want to stop the enema's too eventually but I figure that the laxatives are doing, and have done far more damage than the warm water enema I give myself.
I do 300ml daily with my enema syringe and once a week I go two litres. It does help, even though I use the enema to move things along I have noticed a big difference in what I pass compared to how it was on the Movicol. The Movicol completely wrecked my peristalsis. Now when I take the 300ml I notice that formed stools come out with the enema water compared to what was happening with the laxative. I seem to pass wind more freely now without the laxative too.
I think the Movicol was making my colon so lazy that it could not even form a stool or push out wind. It just bloated me up horribly, made me feel like crap and did nothing to help eliminate the unformed stools. Now, with just the small enema and a diet that's free from all white food, it feels better. My whole digestive system seems to be working better without the Movicol. Hopefully soon I can quit the enemas completely, although they make me feel so good and clean inside that I may not ever stop using them. I have started drinking 8 ounces of prune juice now daily to see if that gets me moving naturally and strengthens up my muscles so that I can restore the peristalsis.
Its so funny, I went to the doctor with a fecal impaction back in January and she gave me so much laxative with no real warning of the side affects, and that caused all the problems. Had she just given me an enema instead of 2 boxes of Movicol to treat it, it would have solved everything and I wouldn't have had the issues that followed. I am just lucky I wised up to it after 3 months and lots of advice on this site, rather than 2 years down the line with peristalsis completely gone. Fingers crossed the re-training works for me and any advice on anything that helped yourselves would be great!!Advertisement

This is a reply to # 2,046,741Good for you milky!
Glad you solved it somehow. If I were you I would also keep a food journal to see what gives you constipation.
I still believe Movicol ingredients have something to do with bacteria or candida overgrowth more than with lazy peristaltism. Movicol by itself won't create impactation if gut flora is ok.

This is a reply to # 2,046,746Hi,
Well I still have a road to go to get back to normal. But cutting the laxative out is a start I think. I wasn't actually taking the Movicol when I got impacted, that was down to a poor diet and not drinking enough water, but I do think the copious amount of laxative the doctor prescribed me contributed to the slow down of my colon.
Hopefully with time and patience I will get back to how I was before all this.
Thanks again!!
