maybe you dont need surgery or chemotherapy for complete anal blockage
Hi im 65 years of age & approximately 17 weeks ago I could not poo 8 weeks ago I was bleeding from rectum & my doctor sent me to emergency in hospital.They confirmed I was bleeding & gave me an enema What came out was a small ammount of diahorrea!!This never even covered the 8 weeks I havent pooed.The weird thing which I still dont know the answer is I never put on any weight?
I was then sent to a specialist who told me to take movicol.This product did seem to work but only diahorrea came out not much I was then told to have a colonoscopy.As i was a private patient IT WAS SCHEDULED FOR APPROXIMATELY 6 WEEKS AHEAD.I wanted it then to no avail.
Three days before the colonoscopy I went to my doctor who suggested I had an xray & a catscan which I did.I was also prescribed a powerful colonoscopy treatment 4 satchels to make me move.As i was blocked I took two capsules 1 day beforehand and all that came out was the colonoscopy treatment no poo!
The reason I knew I was blocked was id tried enemas & also tried a water enema for approx 1 hour to no avail no movement at all.What I did know was that the blockage was approximately 6 inches up my rectum.
I rang the hospital & told them it was no good doing the colonoscopy as nothing was coming out.The surgeon asked to see my catscan & xrays & insisted I had the colonscopy.
I was over the moon thinking they would remove the blockage.
Wow wrong thinking! After the colonoscopy the surgeon told me id need an operation & chemo therapy for 12 months I had a 10 to 17 cm blockage & it had to be cut out!
He also suggested to take movicol to make sure I wasnt blocked &
made an appointment for the following thursday.
I took the movicol thursday friday saturday sunday & nothing was coming out so I was going to the doctor on monday to get emergency treatment!!
This was when I thought Id look at alternative treatments & found baking soda may kill cancer!!!
Ill give myself another enema with baking soda!Well I was on ground for twenty minutes approx with nothing happenning.
I was giving up when two very tiny poops came out.Nothing startling but i knew theyd came from the cancer rear end.Nothing to write home about
The following day my son rang & while on phone to longer very narrow poops came out & nothing for rest of day.
Wednesday two larger poops came out at 8am Then I had two bouts of diahorea.Remember nothing was coming out on sunday.
Thursday time for appointment where I was getting prepared for chemotherapy.I told them something has happenned & the surgeon wouldnt beleive me.He said it was impossible!!
I startd also drinking baking soda & molassses & on many days small poops were coming out not on a daily basis.Ive had two more enemas with I thought no avail
I went to the doctor & said i want the operation asap.This was last monday & he told me to see the specialist tuesday morning.
However monday night I must have gone to the toilet at least 20 times & kept pooping different sizes every time
then nothing till wednesday small poo.
Today Sat 28th nov I went again & done nearly a normal sized poo so my cancer tumour has shrank considerably.
I will not be getting chemo or wearing a bag or operated on at this stage.Im not sure if ive killed the cancer or not.Time will tell
