I’ve been told I’m suffering with inflammation in the bowel. My dad had Crohn’s disease so it’s possible I may have the same. With this flareup of inflammation, I have been quite constipated I was prescribed movicol, but I’m not really able to drink this as it resembles a diarrhoea drink I had as a child and gives me a gag reflex. I can’t have lactulose as I am intolerant to lactose. So I went and bought some senna from boots.
My question is, is this ok to use when your bowels are inflamed as there is conflicting reports when I look online. I’ve been constipated for two weeks quite a lot of pain, Iv got a lots of mucus. I’m at my wits end not being able to go properly or eat properly and want some quick relief from the back up.
i am waiting for a colonoscopy for a definitive diagnosis. Would appreciate any feedback please.
I can’t speak to my dad as he sadly passed away in 2020.
I’m 40 with history of random urges to go toilet followed by a quick evacuation. Bleeding from the bowel, frequent constipation but never for more than a few days usually, and passing mucus regularly (both clear and orange looking)
Thanks guys.
