constipation & new impaction
OMG...
I'm sure with the stress I've had this week it's not helped. But I've been darn hard on my eating solid protien, taking all the chewables with my meals etc..I have the chelated form of iron in chewable form too.
Well yesterday I was so constipated..and I'd read a while back about someone else having this to the bad kind too. While at a friend's last night for our Purpose Driven Life group my friend's wife, Laura was showing me the Miralax which several of you all have talked about..Well, dang I went ahead and had some.
Had been in pain all day and passed some but it was horrible bad pain with really bad straining..oh good grief!! by the time I got home the miralax was gently trying to get stuff to move..after a good hour in the restroom I was finally done.
I cannot tell you how bad my perineum hurts and I feel like this huge void is in my lower belly. I even had some bleeding with this!!
I've not had the constipation issues even in the beginning when I'd had iron supplemented vitamins!!
I honestly thought for that last hour "what am I going to do if this doesn't pass"
needless to say I feel weak and sick today and my just sleep as much as I can.
I'm feeling really down as it is anyway, but had 2 appts with attorney's yesterday..we'll see how it all goes after this work-wise.
