As a child I was given many enemas, soap pessaries, and calcium injections. I got the the calcium back in a single episode at age 17 or 18 in the form of kidney stone. My body didn't need this excess and I developed a fairly strong sexual association with all of the above which was a predictable outcome. No, I'm not gay but generally tolerant of those tagged as belonging to any of these categories.

The kidney stone problem never returned, although the urinary retention I suffer from now might be seen as a distant relative. I practice Clean Intermitent Catheterization (CIC) three times a day to manage this.

My constipation, on the other hand, is embarassing because all too often it leads to a total blockage of the toilet. Bad enough at home but imagine when it happens at someone else's home.

Although I am a newbie to the Constipation Group I ave been a Member of four other Patient Groups. So, fire away with questions or moral support. Warm regards, and Season's Greetings, alan86734..

      Hi, Clarissa42245,

      So it sucks a lot. I take this to mean that you would like to change. Well, in this posting I have already received some practical advice which has come to via the public mail. Therefore we are allowed to share. Right now I am checking to see if its available in the USA .

      I hope that by sharing experiences we can all find solutions (resolve problem or what we have to introduce somewhere).

      All the best for now, and Season's Greetings, alan86734.
