Hi,
How high was the slipped disk? I am assuming it is on the lower back. It may have some implications for the pain. For the diarrhea and the constipation however, the nerves governing this area are much higher up, so there may be no relationship. Perhaps the first step is to rule out an infectious cause or malabsorption . This can be done with examinations of the stool . It would be best to discuss this with your doctor. Stay positive.
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post!!! The supposed prolapsed disc is around the lumbar back area.They never did an mri, the doc lifted my leg and a shock went down it and said it was a disc prob, Back pain has improved only today as im on valium, have stopped the nsaid though, Am just nervous about the blood in my poo, could it be irritation from the suppository? I am nervous incase the cause of this back/pelvic problem could be something in the colon, also i was giving myself water enemas for constipation. could that cause bleeding? I really dont want a colonoscopy. Believe it or not Im a nurse!!
