While
gathering information and client comments to prepare for the upcoming launch of
our Treating IBS Naturally program, I was quite unnerved by a common problem
that I knew people had. I just wasn’t fully appreciating the seriousness
of it.
Constipation
is one of the major symptoms of IBS and its severity can range from mild and unnoticeable to
debilitating and severe.
A
few people shared stories of having battled the constipation for years, and having
suffered terribly as a result.
Constipation
is quite simply an infrequent or halted bowel pattern. The effects,
however, are anything but simple.
People
who have “occasional irregularity” like they describe in the happy sing-songy
commercials have probably experienced some irritability, bowel pain, and general inconvenience as a result of their mild
constipation.
Others,
though, have battled this debilitating symptom in its worst incarnation- not
the mild irregularity but rather the full-blown genuine medical emergency.
For
some, it’s difficult to think that not being able to move the bowels for a couple
of days could constitute a genuine medical emergency, but it’s not just those
couple of days that cause the problem.
If
you’ve ever had surgery, you know that in the post-operative instructions you
have an item that says to call the doctor right away if you are faced with not
moving the bowels for more than 3 days. For some surgical procedures, you
might not even be discharged until you’ve moved your bowels.
You
are sent home generally with instructions to increase water intake, add some
stool softeners or prune juice, and other tips to “keep things moving.”
But
what if it doesn’t work? That’s why you have to call the doctor, because
he or she knows that bad events are on the horizon if you don’t get help right
away.
One
person who wrote in described his ordeal of having gone to the emergency room
because of the excruciating and unbearable pain he experienced. He had
been essentially without movement for 6 days and knew something was wrong but
decided to try and “tough it out” at home.
His
wife was the one who poured his shaking, sweaty, pale body into the family
minivan. She thought he was having a heart attack.
When
they got to the ER and the doctor did his exam, he knew immediately what the
problem was.
A
simple enema solved his problem, but anyone who has ever had one of those knows
it’s no trip to the park undergoing that unpleasant procedure.
What
caused his wife to take him in? Simple- he could no longer argue with her and
say “No, I’ll be fine.” He had long passed the point of manly stoicism.
He was experiencing a genuine medical emergency.
What
would have happened if she didn’t act? No one likes to think about that.
So
how do you know if your constipation is a genuine medical emergency?
Signs to look for are below:
·
Severe
pain
·
Constipation
hasn’t responded to standard treatments
·
Profuse
sweating
·
Weight
loss
·
Lack
of bowel movement for more than 5 or 6 days
·
If
you’ve also had recent surgery or anesthesia
·
Sudden
onset (i.e., you don’t normally struggle with it, you just suddenly stop
movements)
·
Pallor
changes (facial color goes from its normal hue to grey and pale
For
a genuine medical emergency to exist, you don’t have to have all of these
characteristics of a severe problem with constipation. Even just
experiencing a lack of bowel movement for more than 5 days in the absence of
all the others is enough to require immediate treatment.
The
man who wrote in was looking for answers to his chronic constipation, as so
many others frequently do.
I
found myself offering the same advice to each person, but because bowel conditions had previously fallen outside the scope of my research I
wasn’t able to help everyone as I wanted…until now.
I
am happy to announce that very soon I will be releasing the program for Treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome Naturally and have found someone whose own life has been
affected by the terrible effects that come with severe constipation. In
her guide, Julissa Clay describes a comprehensive and easy-to-follow plan
to treat IBS naturally.
This post is from
Julissa Clay’s IBS Solution Program. This program is a step-by-step 21-day plan
for relieving irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for good, 100% naturally and
without side effects. You will regain your normal social life again with no
more pain, cramps, bloating and “emergency” trips to the bathroom.
