Super Heros

Oooh I remember that, not fun but such a relief when it was all over.  Talking of 'poo', I read (not on here) that the best way to go to the toilet is with raised feet in other words - squat!  It straightens your downward colon thereby putting less pressure on your system and opening up the way when you go.  It works that's all I can say!

Morning laura ,this the day  2-15 this afternoon ,and I will be looking

at the unknown.

Picolax does not give you time to decide to lift your feet or squat.It takes

such thoughts out of your head.  Speed is what matters.

I think you must have read that the "Squatters" live in countries without

toilets.so someone deemed it a good idea,for us all to do it,

I have never had any problems with removing the stuff, that is why

I can't understand where my Divi came from.

Now ,,I cannot eat a morsel until it is all over, by then I will be so hungry, i will be tempted to eat everything,tasty, and bad for me

I intend to ask lots of questions about food, as I will have their

undivided attention for a while

Speak soon    

For my upcoming probe I am supposed to have that 2 litres of crappiness and I called and asked them if I could have the sachets. They said yes!! Though they did caution me that it doesn't "clean you out" as good.  Sounds to me like it's doing it's job on you though..

I'm actually quite a bit outspoken anyway. Many a time I've gotten "the look" from hubby..lol ...I often describe myself as "No Filter".  Mind you I do know the correct time and place to be polite.  My granny was straight from Kendall up in the Lakes District of Westmorland County..lol

 

Hi sunni, almost ready,this morning there was some discoloured

discard, so I phoned and asked if it was O.K  Yes was the answer as 

long as there are !no Lumps!  I had an Oxo for my dinner last night,

probably that.  

I go up to Cumbria  quite a lot , but I stay a few miles from Bowness 

away from the crowds. 

I said no to the 2 ltr job because I just can't consume that amount

of liquid in one go. Stay near the loo, for a loooooooong time, Quick 

slimming method . Iv'e lost 3 lbs. will put it back on when I get back

You sound a tad like me sunni  Better get dressed now, xx 

 

Hi .just got back. everything was running late .Update----- The camera

job showed that I have severe Divi, and there are lots of pouches in my

colon,so it will be odds on I am in ""Flare "land for good  .I asked about

onions and raw veggies, and just got the same old , don't know, everyone is different, so no help there.Saw the pouches which look like

potholes, no wonder stuff gets lodged in them.

 No doubt it will be a long wait to see the consultant, who will tell me

that I have severe Divi, but not how to cope with it. Good job I

 have the probiotics to take reasonable care of me. The new is bad, but

life goes on, I'm certainly not going to linger on it,

Probably go to Cumbria now and do some riding in the forest.always

makes me feel good. xxx

you watched!.. not sure I wanna see that...lol

Like that rock song says.."I wanna be sedated!"

I have a feeling I'm going to be the same.  Did they suggest surgery?

That is my biggest fear I'm going to be stuck with the pouch. 

A ride in Cumbria sounds really relaxing.  One of the items on my bucket list is to visit my granny's hometown.  I've seen postcards but would love to experience the real deal.  My oldest daughter and I are planning a graduation mum and daughter trip for June 2017.  Can't wait

It's no problem watching, don't have much choice really, as the T.V

is right in your face.  You will be stuck with the pouch, how do you

know that you only have one ???

You can only have sedation if someone is with you, otherwise it's

the laughing gas. 

I think they would have preferred for me to have been sedated.

because I never stopped asking questions.

Surgery only happens if the pouches go through the colon wall

Was going to Cumbria, but the weather said rain for the next two weeks

so will probably go to the East coast ,NO rain for the next two weeks

When are you booked in.do you know yet ???

I think something got lost in translation..lol  When I say pouch I meant the colostomy pouch. I guess some call it a bag.  Here they give you sedation and tell you to bring a responsible adult that can drive you home. I was told that If I have to have a section out that I'd be hooked up to it for about 3-6 months depending on how I heal. My Gastro Dr. is also concerned with the amount of Crohn's in my family. 11 on one side of my  paternal grandfather's and 4 on my paternal grandmother's. 

Right sunni, glad we sorted the pouches out !!

That is a lot of hereditary to cope with,So it looks like you are for the 

chop .Your life will obviously be a whole lot better.

 Such a nice day .went for a drive into Derbyshire, through Chatswoth

Park, then on to Bakewell to my favourite deli, and had a huge

turkey and ham sandwich. sat in the sun and watched the tourists

 

Sounds like a very relaxing day...very envious...lol

Hi , had another one today. Went to Sherwood Forest ,Robin Hood

country. Theres a really nice cafe in a craft centre, I had my usual dish of 

chips, only time I eat them when I go there.Thought I would make the

most of the nice weather, Soon be  dark for ever ,when the clocks go

back.Must admit stress goes, and feel good doing pleasant things

 

it sounds like you visit so many wonderfully relaxing places..I'm going to have to write them down and try to include some on our trip..lol

Yorkshire is the next counyt south of Cumbria, so you would be able

to visit,just get c good road map.xx
