Hi, Vwolf, My bowel tends to flop over on itself. The diagram of my large
bowel that the Dr. who did my exam of my large bowel with a scope, drew a
diagram of my bowel in his report. That looked like a piece of rope or
something when you throw it down any which way. The curves did not cross
over one another, but just showed a long wavy line in the general shape of a
normal colon. Wavy is the right word for it. One X-ray showed a corner of
it completely flopped over on itself. If it does this very often, it's no
wonder things don't go through. But I guess I still feel that with changes
to diet, medication, etc. it should be possible to overcome this without
surgery. That X-ray was taken some years ago and I have still continued to
struggle along. Guess , to some extent, its a matter of possibly exchanging
one struggle with another, and nobody is guaranteeing a completle cure. I no
longer have either an appendix or a gall bladder. Was told removal of my
gallbladder would be 95 percent certain to remove all my digestive problems.
Instead, they are worse, if anything.
About the ileocecal valve, I have run into info about pressing downward
and to the right over the area where it is supposed to be which is supposed
to cause it to open up. I do this during my ab massages morning and
evening. It doesn't help consistently, but that may be due to some of my
"interventions". I will give the pineapple juice in glass bottles a try. I
haven't done that before.
This right sided pain is from the ileocecal area to the right side center
of my ribcage. I am being told that the left side is possibly the area
where things get slowed up and the pain in the right side is from material
trying to get through, including gas. Thanks again, all of you. Ruth

Hi Ruth...

Hi, Rowena, Thanks very much for all the helpful information and websites
about mold. I am wondering if the mold in my house is a dangerous kind
since
I am not sick in the usual ways described. This is what puzzles my doctors
so much that I am not in severe pain, although it approaches severe in my
right abdomen
Ruth the first thing I think of when you say right abdomenis
illeocall (sp) valve.
Where abouts in your right abdomen...say...from the belly button...lower
..higher?
I used to go to a chiropractor who would sometimes "clear" this valve
area..painful as the dickens but did help with bowel problems.
So I read up on it and it seems that the Illeocal Valve..often blocks up.
The chiropractor says popcorn for instance will mess with it big time.
I also found that drinking pineapple juice is a great way to clear this
valve.
I assume you have ruled out problems with the appendix?
If the pain is higher than the belly button...have you thought about gall
problems?
p.s. Organic Pineapple Juice...in a glass bottle.
I think its very bad for the system to drink any thing acidic from cans.

oh, also..what is a "floppy" bowel?
when I waken during the night to go to the bathroom, but it
does not usually keep me awake. I go right back to sleep after the
bathroom
trip. I think I will call the County Health Nurse about this and see what
she has to offer re diagnosing the type of mold present in my house. This
whole area used to be a swamp I am told. The railroad bought the land
years
ago and drained a good deal of it. Actually just one house east of mine,
the land was still a swamp until a couple of year ago. Migrating water
birds would stop there and we could enjoy the sound of frogs croaking in
spring. The whole area has now been drained with varying success. A
neighbor across the street from me had his basement flooded recently due to
some malfunction of the main pump used by the town to keep the water levels
low. A nursing home has been built on a higher portion of that ground. I
am told that you used to be able to row a boat from the closest town to the
west , to Gibbon where I live. You have given me some good starting places
for research. thanks again. Ruth
