Hi! I also have a lazy colon which is way longer than most folks have and also it doesn't stay put, but moves around. I have used a cascara product in the past, but found it did cause cramps. Now, after trying many kinds of medication, Zelnorm, etc. I have returned to the product I depended on throughout college years and beyond. That is plain old mineral oil. For a few years now, I had avoided it, but now Iffgd, ( I think those are the right initials) has printed an article saying that mineral oil does not keep one from assimilating vitamins. The main danger is the possibility of coughing or something while you are taking it an aspirating it into your lungs. This organization specializes in researching irritable bowel syndrome. I don't have their address here at the library, but think you would find it
under "irritable bowel syndrome" on the web. On Friday, I will try to remember to bring the address. I am still having quite a little discomfort with my digestive tract in general, although bowel function is definitely better. My next approach will be to eliminate microwave cooking . This morning I stood in front of the microwave cooking a bunch of squash that I have frozen. Now , this afternoon, here are articles about the dangers of microwaving. I have been vaguely aware of this possibility, but like others have ignored it. I do have a steamer in which I often do vegetables, but, of course, it takes longer. Another problem with my bowel is adhesions which , I would guess, may not respond to stopping microwaving, We'll see. Cheers, [email protected]
