Re: [TMIC] Digital Removal
Frank, you did not embarass me. It is just that you would think a 62-year old woman would put 2 + 2 together quicker, but every time I saw the word, I just couldn't figure out what it was. I blame things like that on my meds. Also, thanks for the explanation below - it does help.Problem is, my body doesn't operate that way, so don't understand all the "jibe".

Janice, don't feel horrible. Your question was valid. I had to (The Devil made me do it) put a little spin on the answer. I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. Bowel Movement discussions are important as I believe we all have problems, and questions, from time to time. There are books (Long books) written on the subject. the major problems encountered relate to fecal dehydration, motility and peristalsis. Dehydration turns turds into rocks- not good. motility is enhanced by using bulking agents and mineral oil. And peristalsis is activated by rectal suppositories or prunes, or other OTC products like that chocolate stuff we used to mix in the chocolate icing to give that special person a special treat. So we need to drink at least a quart of water a day. Eat lots of Bulk (Veges and meds like lactulose), and prunes or the equivalent . I hope that helps, and it is true that hypnosis does help (Close your eyes and imagine the long train emerging from the dark tunnel) F

Re: [TMIC] Digital Removal
Oh no, no, no Janicethere was absolutely nothing wrong with your question. We DO talk about everything on this list and any concern is a valid one. I got silly with Frank because I've known him for about 12 yearsand know his sense of humor. I read what he wrote about the prunes and wish they would work that way for me. I can eat half a bag of dried prunes and they won't work for me.but if I warm 6 oz. of prune juice in the microwave it works in about 3 or so hours. I haven't tried stewed prunes...maybe that's the difference. As for digital removal ...when I was first paralyzed the last thing I thought about was the fact that I wasn't having a bowel movement. I was dealing with hospitals, chiropractors, doctors, and so onand wondering why I was paralyzed in the first place. Finally it dawned on me..9 days later.I spent 2-1/2 hours in the bathroom taking care of the problem myself so I wouldn't have to have a doctor do it for me. Trust meI know how you feel. Hugs, Lynn
