Just had to tell everyone.... I have had the screaming schnitz for 21 days now. Been taking everything on the market to stop it..... and the meds worked...but 2 minutes after they wore off I was toilet bound. SOOOOO....I tried the coconut macaroon cookies.... I could not eat enough of them because of no appetite....someone said straight coconut but that was yukky so I ate mini mounds bars.....all day today...everytime i could get one down...i ate it.....NO meds all days....had a few runny poops this morning and then it stopped.... ALL DAY....NO POOP!!!! Then I got a PM from Buzz (ok, i admit...it kinda excited me a lil bit) Thanks Buzz.... and I had that poop sensation come over me...ran to the john cause od course I thought it would be running out.....NOPE.....TURDS>>>TURDS>>>TURDS!!!!!!! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...don't tell no one...might jinx it...our secret....but TURDS! YAY!!!!!! I don remember who brought up the coconut..who was it????? but thank you...thank you...thank you!!!

    Coconuts?
    Coconuts?

    Eating just one coconut would have stopped it almost immediately,
    but you're supposed to swallow the thing whole!

    Now I'm going to be busy
    I'm going to have to figure out a recipe of coconut to share which includes chocolate, yet not too much, so that many of us can see if this "natural" solution will work for the rest of us. Hmmmm, I up for the experiment!!!

    I will ask my daughter tomorrow for the recipe
    I can't wake her up tonight; I will ask her after school, or when I get back from the onc. I think they were pretty easy to make + I don't think you bake them. She is baking cookies very regularly; right now we have chocolate chip cookies baked yesterday. She also made me delicious french toast on the weekend with Maple Syrup -yum.

    I just had mine plain with
    I just had mine plain with no butter, + the maple syrup was cold. It was fantastic. Then today she told me she added fresh whipping cream, + fresh raspberries + bluberries to her own. Apparently she thought about that AFTER she gave me mine. I live in Ontario, one of the biggest maple syrup producers in the world. I try to always have it on hand. I even put a little into a smoothie today.

    And all this time I thought it was the Matzoh that stopped us up
    Passover is a notorious time for constipation - usually attributed to eating matzoh. However, another Passover food is coconut macaroons.

    Now we Jews are going to have to rethink the theories!

    Thanks!

    Thanks for so much for your comments. George will be starting on CPT-11 so besides having Immodium on hand I'll get some coconut macaroon cookies and never thought of it but the mini mounds bars are coconut.

    Any other ideas to get ahead of the runs in case he gets them?

    Thanks and hugs - Tina
