Adequate water will really help. Check out the info on the Water Cure page to understand how important water is for us. By the time we are registering thirst,
we are already dehydrated.

I would also suggest a hot tub of water, with a couple of cups or more of epsom salt
in it.

If the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) is not working for you, you can use the lax tea morning and night. Some gentle massage of your abdomen or a castor oil pack may be beneficial.

Here are directions for how to make a castor oil pack!

Simple procedure for detox and cleansing~

Castor oil has a long history of traditional medical use
dating back to ancient Egypt. Derived from the castor bean
(Ricinus communis), the oil was once used internally as a
laxative but is now primarily used externally due to its
potential toxicity.

How it works

A castor oil pack is placed on the skin to increase circulation
and to promote elimination and healing of the tissues and organs
underneath the skin. It is used to stimulate the liver, relieve
pain, increase lymphatic circulation, reduce inflammation, and
improve digestion.

How it is made

Castor oil packs are made by soaking a piece of flannel in castor
oil and placing it on the skin. The flannel is covered with a
sheet of plastic, and then a hot water bottle is placed over the
plastic to heat the pack.

A castor oil pack can be placed on the following body regions:

The right side of the abdomen to stimulate the liver. Castor oil
packs are often recommended as part of a liver detox program.

Inflamed and swollen joints, bursitis, and muscle strains.

The abdomen to relieve constipation and other digestive disorders.

The lower abdomen in cases of menstrual irregularities and
uterine and ovarian cysts.

Safety precautions~

Castor oil should not be taken internally. It should not be
applied to broken skin, or used during pregnancy, breastfeeding,
or during menstrual flow.

Materials

Three layers of undyed wool or cotton flannel large enough to
cover the affected area

Castor oil

Plastic wrap cut 1-2" larger than the flannel (can be cut from a
plastic bag)

Hot water bottle or heating pad

Container with lid

Old clothes and sheets. Castor oil will stain clothing and
bedding.

Method

1. Place the flannel in the container. Soak it in castor oil
so that it is saturated, but not dripping.

2. Place the pack over the affected body part.

3. Cover with plastic.

4. Place the hot water bottle or heating pad over the pack.
Leave it on for 45-60 minutes. Rest while the pack is in place.

5. After removing the pack, cleanse the area with a dilute
solution of water and baking soda.

6. Store the pack in the covered container in the refrigerator.
Each pack may be reused up to 25-30 times.

Frequency of use

It is generally recommended that a castor oil pack be used for
3 to 7 days in a week to treat a health condition or for detox.

I hope you find relief~~

be happy, be well,

Another thing that might help you is an Epsom Salt flush. Take the two drinks of one tablespoon of Epsom Salts dissolved in your lemonade drink. Take the drinks two to three hours apart. It sounds to me like you might have a stricture, a narrowing of the bowel that is catching and holding fecal material. If the matter stays long enough and hardens, it can be a problems and cause a lot of pain. The Epsom Salt will draw a lot of fluid into the bowel and soften the hardened fecal material and allow it to pass. Be sure and drink plenty of fluids before and after doing this. The day after you do the Epsom flush, skip the salt water flush, but, put a small amount of Sea Salt into your drinks throughout the day to help replenish minerals.

Have you been taking a lot of calcium supplements or using Bentonite clay before beginning the MC? Both of these can line the walls of the colon and become trapped in the sticky mucus. The Master-Cleanse may have softened this and it became trapped and hardened in the bowel. I completely stopped using calcium hydroxide after this happened to me. I knew it was not soluble in water, but I heard so many good things about it, I tried it. I had a big lump of "rock" come out after I got so desperate and sick I had to do an emergency Epsom Salt flush.

Zoebess gave you some wonderful advice on keeping things going, but if all else fails, or you feel too miserable, try the Epsom Salts .
