thanx 4 getting in touch, i have tried milk of mag it did help him go at the time but he's not going when i stop giving him anything.
We've had hell of wkend with it, my son was crying in pain friday {had 2 collect him from school early it was so bad} He was like a wild cat, screaming when any1 got close, hitting out @ people, totally out of character as he quite a placid child. Went 2 dr, he refused 2 help just said continue with movicol. It took 11 doses of movicol 2 shift it. He's lost sensation in bowel, isn't feeling the need to go. Today i have phoned a different surgery hopefully changing dr's will get us the help we desperatly need. Fingers crossed.
Have you tried Milk of Magnesia, that worked with my son. Also, my doctor had me give him enamas (just last week), he was so constipated. That forces him to go to the bathroom, even if it's just a little bit. My Dr. had me give my son three enamas, once a day for three days to help him clear out that area.
Good luck.
