Can you believe it? Seems to be a bit of a theme lately... it builds up during the week while I'm at work, then seems to resolve itself over the weekend, usually painfully and in a rather unpleasant fashion! Had a lot of trouble with a barium x-ray about 6 months ago, as even the laxatives and picolax wouldn't shift it... had to go back for a second go. I think the docs thought I hadn't taken the picolax... but I did!
Seems to build up in the crohns affected area which is the large bowel on the right side of my body (just above the appendix) so I suspect it's all related to the symptoms. When I'm relaxed and not at work (!!) - like when I was off recently with a broken ankle... everything seems to work much better... no stress, obviously.
Seeing my consultant in a couple of weeks... so I'll raise it with him.
I eat a quite varied diet now, less stodge and as much fruit and veg as I dare, and no, I don't drink enough water... going to start right now!
Any other suggestions?
