I think that some of our emails may have crossed each others path, between replies. That seems pretty easy these days with the lightening speed of the internet. I would caution those who are under doctors care to consult you doctor before making any major changes to your prescribed medications. Its just sound medical advise. Roy's product has merit when no other valid options exist. Keep in mind that this is still between you and your doctors. Now..... back to the football game you winnies, lol.

Being a quadriplegic has never been easy for me... however, I will eat dog Doo Doo if I thought it would help me. That has always been my attitude for 49 years. Do like my football coach once told me... suck it up. Help yourself and stop being a crybaby.

The apple a day sounds doable...but dried apricots are not the most tasty things, for me :) So are you saying....no senna and no stool softeners? I don't know if anything will come out if I do that. How about Miralax as suggested by John? Thanks sooooo much!

Based on that... let me give you some of my knowledge. Hard stool is always caused by stool remaining in your colon too long as the purpose of the colon is to remove water from the highly liquid stool coming from the small intestine. Almost every quadriplegic that I have known... including myself... has what is called slow "transit" time... meaning that the stool goes slowly through your colon. This causes more water to be extracted and the result is hard stool. So here are some choices and I would recommend to you: 1. Avoid all laxatives of all kinds because they damage your colon tissue. Chemicals are not good for your body. 2. Eat more fruit... especially apples because their fiber is the best available today for this problem. 3. Locate some dried apricots at the local market and eat about 5-6 of them daily. You've heard of the help of prunes... dried apricots are supercharged prunes. 4. Finally... drink more water as this will help your stool become softer and easier to pass. Finally... if all else fails please go to my website... link below for more information. Your quadriplegic friend...

The Mirilax will do the job but the rest is still good advice.

Recently my stools have become very hard. I currently take 2 over-the-counter stool softener capsules the night before my routine which I do every other morning, every other day. I also take two senna tablets the night before as well. But recently, they have become hard. Any thoughts on what to try? Thanks so much!
