Hi Shelly, Bowel programs are a necessary evil and are developed for your best health and well being. Urine and stool are considered waste and once pass the point of no return are no good for you.... or your body. As TABS, most go once a day and sometimes twice a day. And its natural way of ridding the human body of that which is not needed. Clog up that wasteline and you are in for a world of hurt and unnecessary attention. So best is once a day. I realize that some go once, every other day. Others wait longer. Forget to take the garbage out for a couple of weeks and see what your neighbors have to say, lol. Suppository and Ducs, are known for producing the "Ghost Effect." That is unexpected bowel movements. The suppository is broken after insertion and a small piece travels up the bowel. The rest is poop'd out, giving you the impression that its out and gone... until the ghost strikes. I promote the old discontinued Therevac SB or its new name... Emeneze Plus. It works, just ask anyone who uses it. Of course a good diet is important. Fruits, veggies and some rough foods too. Bowel training IS part of the bowel program. Keep in mind that if you are getting hugh monies to store human body waste.... go for it. If not, keep it real and plan on going once a day. You can also try a health food store for some basic advise on normal body function and how it applies to YOUR body. Remember, a clean body means a happy day ahead of you. A sluggish bowel..... well just ask any TAB, lol. If you require more info, please advise. Best Wishes W In a message dated 10/6/2007 11:50:08 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
I am so sick and tired of this dominating my life. It is after 12 midnight and I am considering sleeping on the potty chair. At 8 I inserted a suppository. An hour and and half later I decided to call it quits, nothin happening. It's 9:30 and am making my way to bed. THEN I needed to get back on and did not make it. What a mess. When will this get better? I am so tired of this that I am seriously considering limiting my food intake. Starting tomorrow. Taking a shower and dressing took me 2 hours and I have spent over 3 hours doing my bowel program. It has been a year since my accident. Shouldn't I have this figured out by now? I am so frustrated and angry. Sick and tired of crying to. Thanks Shelly 1 year post C6-C7 incomplete ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
