Im so mad! I am on Zofran (24 mg a day). Was RXed 32 mg a day but cut back due to headaches (not sure if they were from the zofran or not)....anyway....I have only gone to the bathroom twice in the last month (TMI *** but once was about 2 little marbles...the other time was about 4)..
Last time I went to the bathroom was 16 days ago. (to which the Dr said he highly doubted that...he essentially called me a LIAR!!!! UGH!!!)
Ive tried prunes, oatmeal, colace and milk of magnesia....I am eating 3 times a day but its been mostly cereal, sandwiches, bagels etc...nothing too fiberous because Im SERIOUSLY nauseous 24/7 (to the point I havent been able to get out of bed for more than a few minutes for the past 4 weeks)
TMI****today the M.O.M hasnt made me go but I am having some problems with watery stool leaking out (which is a sign of impaction...my son just went through this over the summer). So I call the Dr who tells me a) Im fine ....b)the MOM needs more time to work and to take 4tbsp every 12 hours (yeah ok, I can barely get the crud down!)....and c)I should go off the zofran b/c its better to throw up than be constipated!!!!! (his words!)
So I asked him how he'd go about stopping the zofran (which I cant imagine doing b/c its the only reason Ive gotten any food or drink in me) and he said take 2 tomorrow and 1 the next day and then stop. If I was going to stop I would think I should do it more gradually, kwim?
I dont know what to do....I think I'll call the other OB tomorrow and get her opinion...but in the meantime, do you think an enema would help? I dont think I can stomach more MOM and Im having horrible stomach pains
