No you won't feel like eating with all the pain in your stomach. Seriously ask lisa to go to the pharmacy and get you a pack of glycerine pessaries. dip one in water, push it in and hey presto, 15 minutes later no pain or cramps, and by tomorrow you will have your appetite back.
 
are you talking two of them ...dip one in water and then you said hey presto 15 mins later no cramps appitite back tomorrow...two tablets or just one...let me know because seeing youre having had the same symptoms i am having it might work for me...
 
No, just the 1 pessary don't use 2. they are bullet shaped jelly pessaries that you put up your backside. Dip 1 in water then insert it in your backside and wait for 15 minutes. after 5 minutes you will want to go, just hold it for 15 minutes then go. believe me it was the only thing that worked. I just wish someone had told me earlier, as I went for 10 days with all the pain and cramps and useless laxatives. My GP told me to use them as I telephoned him as a last resort. Let me know when you have cleared the blockage. Annie.
 
Hey Rich,

Congratulations on your new hip...this is brilliant news! I'm sorry about the "poop" part and not eating. Once I got into a routine of a stool softener it helped immensely. Don't cringe the first time was horrid, then it was ok. Lots of water is good too. Ohhh you being teary makes me tear up, thats natural you've come through a major deal, just the build up of having surgery is emotional, then the drugs, oyyyyyyyyyy! I'm a huge believer the more you cry the better you will feel, it's like letting out all that pent up emotions. Like a rainy day everything afterwards is beautiful and clear! You sound well there other things will pass soon.

Sending you lots of good wishes, be good to yourself. Hey do you like your iPad?

xxooxx
 
Hey Sarah aka buddy, well i can report i had a bowel movement and it was NOT horriying either, my knew why i was having the problem to begin with i was not eating...and sure enough i ate a half corn muffin and drank some flavored water and presto i was all set...you people are the best but no one is bettr then you Sarah.
 
Perfect on the poop <~hahahaha hey it's serious if it's not working properly! No handstands or cartwheels tonight please, I'll might have to report you to the hippy police hahahah! Have a great night Rich xxooxx
 
Now, now - I shall get jealous! You are such a flirt, all us ladies will get jealous if you don't flatter us equally! Just sayin ....

As for the constipation and the tears, it's all part of the deal. Tears are tears of relief that's it's all over, I wouldn't be surprised.


I am going to move your thread but the links you have will still work, I'll see to that.

Here goes ......

There y'go! Over on the "other side" ....

And you never knew anything about it, did you - just like the Versed! :th_heehee:
 
Click on the Knee (nope!!! HIP) Forums tab at the top of the page and select the link to Knee (NO!!! HIP!!) Replacement Recovery forum. You'll see an index of threads and yours will be one of them!

I think you might benefit from reading a couple of Library articles too, Rich.

I found it Jamie, thanks alot, do you think im going to get any replies seeing its a knee forum and i had my hip repaced, just it doesnt make sense thats all, i will take your advice because the ladies are more often then not correct.
 
Your in the hip post recovery section...I found you. I was going to move you, just no guarantees where you would have ended up maybe on a different website all together, late joke sorry! Night again....

Hi Rich
Yep Jo, I have to second your comment, how quickly us ladies get forgotten!!

Mmm! I recall many nights chatting for hours.. with our navy boy :)

So pleased to hear all is well with the constipation Rich, rest well :)
 
Ill take the small victories as they come...constipation that, i was bumming there for awhile but not anymore, my wife i have to give the credit afterall she did say "hun will you just listen to me on this one and just put something in your belly " and sure enough like clock work within 20minutes i was able to do my buisness.....:dancy:
 
I often say what did i do in this world to deserve someone like my wife, shes an angel, she was there for me all this week and weeks leading up to the surgery it really took a toll on her and im making sure if i can do ANYTHING for her i will, i dont want to stand on the sidelines watching her her stress is killing me i know i have my recover to worry about but she also has to worry about her mothet who is not in good health right, so o what am i supposed to do sit around and do nothing i think thats the only option i have right now, i have no othrr choice and i see it in her facial expresion she's wiped out, i wih i could do more yet i need to be reallistic and that means taking it easy so be it, but i dont like it one bit.

Our spouses are the ones who carry the load, I know my John has been carrying my load for a long time for me. This is marriage, through the good and the bad times, through sickness and in health...

You will improve, it is going to take some time, Lisa understands that...

Remember what my John suggested to you before your surgery?

Ring the florist and get them to deliver a surprise bunch of flowers to Lisa.. us ladies love that!

For now you need go rest and recover and then you will be able to take the load.
 
Flowers for her are a definite i just need to plan it right, ya see she has the next three days off from work so i need to time it just right otherwise she'll end up walking while the flower guy is walking up the stairway to our doorway, anyway i will not foget that fo sure, marriage,at least mine anyway, is awesome look forward to seeing her at the end of everyday,when she's away i miss her and thats the one tning i love the most, missing her and seeing her after being away nothing takes the place of that NOTHING, ONLY HER
