I thought she said u use for 3 wks and it ran a bottle, I could have heard wrong tho. I just need to really clean out, sry tmi, 1st timer here, to help feel better, not sluggish. And I often am constipated too, sry again. Any suggestions would be greAt!

Is it diet ? is it by medicine ? is it by reducing stress? many doctors could mot solve the problem?

For the past year, I have been having on average three to four bowel movements per day, sometimes more. They always feel unfinished, and I get cramps and gas often. I rarely get constipated, and I get dhiarrea occasionally, but usually it’s just regular stool. The stool is usually thin in shape. I used to have just one bowel movement per day, and afterward I would feel totally relieved, and sort of energized. Now it’s totally the opposite. Sometimes my bowel movements smell like a dead animal, and I get gas that smells like that sometimes.

Is it possible I have a bowel obstruction, or is it just Irritable Bowel Syndrome? I tried giving myself saline enemas, and not much came out. I also tried taking colon cleanse laxatives, and I got a little diarreah, but thats about it.

It’s ruining my life, I am 30 years old and it’s making it hard for me to have a social life like this, and I sometimes dread going to work because I have to poop so many times, and I get so much gas.

My mother was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer 2 years ago. She is now on her last few months and I want to find something, anything that might help her stay for just a little longer. Anything helps! Trials, no gaurantees we are willing to try ANYTHING!

I had 2 parakeets, male and female, but the male died a couple of days ago. He was at least 5 years old, though nobody knows his real age. I spent about 3 hours yesterday cleaning and scrubing and rinsing cage, etc. (And rinsing and rinsing.) I used bleach on pan, and dawn on eveything else. (Yes, the bleach was diluted, about 8oz for 160 oz water.) She seems to be fine, still singing, and droppings look normal. I treated both with an antibiotic for 9 days, when he started acting sick. It’s been about 3 days since finishing treatment, and I was reading about birds needing bacteria in the intestines after antibiotics. How do I give Bene Bac to her, how often, and how much? Is it easier to use the gel, or the powder? I’m thinking of having it flown in overnight, so I’d like to know which one I should use on such a small bird. How do you store it? Has anyone got any experience in treating parakeets, and has any tips? Thanks.

Need to loose 30lbs. Store told me most effective diet pill if controlled by diet and exercisee too.

I have never detoxed before, but I was told, and can’t remember the order. I was told, I THINK, to cleanse the colon first so that when the residue come out of the liver, etc, then it goes into a cleaner colon that can more easily get rid of those residues ? And what is good for colon cleanse in the way of foods, tinctures, and maybe coffee enemas ? I don’t need site unless they are informative, I do not want sites about where to buy them, I like to hear real life experiences if possible. Thanks

31 y/o female presents with chief complaint of right groin pain which extends to midline pelvis down to inner thigh. Symptoms are generally mild until patient drives, sits, or stands 30 minutes or longer. Patient states onset has been about 3 months ago and is now progressively getting worse. No trauma or injury noted by patient. Pain is better when patient lays down on other hip, but does not completely diminish.

Patient past surgical history: Complete hysterectomy, appendectomy, cholecystectomy

Patient medical history: mild Fibromyalgia, chronic sinusitis, appendicitis, Gall bladder EF=14%, "malfunctioning uterus", superficial blood clot (pregnancy)

Patient family medical history: Cancer (bone, blood, lung, kidney, breast), Heart attack, DVT’s, anemia, HTN, hernia

1st office visit: Dr. ordered venous duplex and x-ray of right hip after ruling out hernia.

After both tests came back normal, Dr. ordered CT scan with contrast of abdomen/pelvis…results were pseudo finding of transverse ascending colon inflammation consistent with colitis.

After reviewing results of CT, physician had patient trial an oral steroid (Medrol Dose Pack) Patient’s symptoms became intensley worse on this medication. Initially, the upper groin/pelvic pain got better, but entire right hip "was on fire" where the patient stated that she couldn’t even stand having anything touch it including her underwear. As the medication gradually decreased the original symptoms returned at a gradual pace and the "fire" in her hip lessened as the medication dosage lessened.

2nd office visit: Due to the worsening effect from the Medrol, physician did pelvic exam and noted severe bone pain located at the top right of patients vaginal wall. Patient stated that there has been a dull ache there at all times since Feb 2009 and was made worse with sexual intercourse but hadn’t thought of that earlier. (no history of STD’s)

Pysician ordered full pelvic x-ray, basic lab workup, and MRI’s of hip and pelvis…all were negative.

Patient was sent to have a nerve conduction test and EMG…both negative.

Patient’s pain is presently worsening and she is now unable to drive longer than 10 minutes if pain was previously aggrivated and 20 minutes if not. Dull pain is continuously present but is made excrutiating when putting pressure on the pelvic bone itself. Pain seems to be worst in groin, vaginal, and bottom of the buttocks areas.

Things ruled out already: DVT, Hernia, bone infection, visible tumor, nerve entrapment, spinal and/or disc problems, arthritis, and referred pain

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what this odd presentation of symptoms could be? How about a next step suggestion? We are running out of options and we are 100% positive this is not "in the patient’s head". Any further insight and ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks.
Pt is 5’3" and 134 lbs and has also had complaints of fatigue for about 1 year.
Thanks Douglas, for your input. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the issue. Was a great idea though!
Thank you Kathy. However, the oral steroid (Medrol) that was tried should have helped the pain if this was the issue. This medication is an oral substitue to a corticosteroid that is injected to relieve this type of nerve pain that isn’t fixed with manipulation. Therefore, the pt’s poor response to the Medrol trial would rule this out. Thanks again…was an interesting and great find!

The blood I am seeing is in small amounts and is gone once I’ve comlpeted cleaning myself. I’ve seen this several times but not each time I have a bowel movement. Is this a sign of colon issues? Or is this something minor?

I read this article ( http://dailydietnewstoday.com/diet/index.htm ) about an Acai Slim & Colon Detox XR diet and how people have taken the pills and lost a great amount of weight fast. Is this real, is it dangerous, is it fake? Who has tried it, and how does it work?

Thanks!

I’m stuck again. A little help?

"A new study by the Karolinska Institute in Sweden shows that the American health care system outperforms the socialized systems in Europe in getting new medicines to cancer patients. The difference saves lives, and the existing Western European systems force people to die at higher rates from the same cancers, although the Telegraph buries that lede. The researchers studied Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan, South Africa and the US, as well as 19 European countries, with a total population of 984 million, and looked at access to 67 newer cancer drugs. They found that the proportions of female cancer patients surviving five years beyond diagnosis in France, Spain, Germany, Italy were 71 per cent, 64 per cent, 63 per cent and 63 per cent respectively. In the UK it was 53 per cent. Among men the proportions still alive at five years in the same countries were 53 per cent, 50 per cent, 53 per cent and 48 per cent. Again in the UK it was lower at 43 per cent."

The survivability rates beyond five years of diagnosis in the United States are far in excess of all of these socialized countries with socialized medicine. Here’s the point, though, and it takes a while in the story for it to show up. Here’s the reference in the story about the American system. "Dr. Nils Wilking, a clinical oncologist at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, said: "Our report highlights that in many countries new drugs are not reaching patients quickly enough and that this is having an adverse impact on patient survival. Where you live can determine whether you receive the best available treatment or not. To some extent this is determined by economic factors, but much of the variation between countries remains unexplained. In the US we have found that the survival of cancer patients is significantly related to the introduction of new oncology drugs.’ … The proportion of colorectal cancer patients with access to the drug Avastin was 10 times higher in the US than it was in Europe, with the UK having a lower uptake than the European average."

United States health care saves more lives than socialized medicine, and yet socialized medicine is one of the building blocks of the Democrat Party’s agenda, particularly Mrs. Bill Clinton’s agenda. Now, it’s the same thing with tax revenue that we were just discussing. If current tax rates are producing record amounts of revenue and rapid economic growth, why would you change it? If the US health care system is the best in the world, despite its flaws — if it’s the best in the world and people who come down with deadly diseases survive much longer here because of access to drugs much sooner and much cheaper than people who live in socialized countries have access to it — why in the world would you change it? Well, there’s a simple answer. Socialists want control. They want as much control over us as they can get. It’s about power. It’s about enlarging the State. It’s about making you dependent, and that eliminates your threatening their power. The less wealth you have, the less mobility, freedom, the less of a threat you are to their power. This is liberalism through and through.

Now you might ask: "How come so many average Americans are liberals and they’re willing to give up this power?" Because they’re dupes. I’m talking about the leaders. I’m talking about the people in Washington. I’m talking about the think tank leaders. I’m talking about the special interest groups. Liberals in this country, these doofuses that write the hateful comments on Internet blogs, they’re just unhappy people in general. They want everybody else to be miserable with them anyway. They’re probably jealous of people who do better than them and they want those people taken down a peg or two. They want everything the same. Everything the same. No inequality. No inequity. They want outcome of results. They’re sickos and they’re miserable and they’re unhappy and they want everybody to join them in that. But you talk about ideology? Liberals believe this and conservatives believe this. It’s really very, very simple. Conservatives believe in individual liberty and freedom and ambition so that people can become the best they can be, because it is believed that the greatest society and the greatest culture, the greatest country, is achieved by the greatest number of people pursuing excellence. Liberals don’t have that faith in people and they don’t want that kind of freedom. They want to be in charge. They want to have the power and they want people dependent because that is what enriches them in every which way you can imagine.

If we had cars that plugged into the walls because they ran on batteries, we wouldn’t have to buy gas anymore, but our electric bills would go up. We’d have to start at the big boys, the power companies. We have to come up with a clean, abundant, and reliable source of energy for these major power companies to use. We must stop using fossil fuels before it’s too late. We are sucking the earth dry of its intestines, causing the skin to move in pain. Earthquakes, Tsunamis, Hurricanes, and all other natural disasters will increase as we keep polluting our air and draining the earth of its resources. Lets not be the virus on this planet, but the flavor of the earth.

I’ve had some problems with my stomach for a few years now and think that I might have celiac disease. I had a colonoscopy 3 years ago and my intestines looked fined, so does that mean I don’t have celiac disease or would celiac disease not show up in a colonoscopy?

About two months ago, I decided to try and lose some weight and also to try and rid my body of toxins at the same time. I wanted to see if it would help my chronic fatigue syndrome and related disorders, since nothing else really has. I’ve been taking a lot of prescription meds for pain, anxiety, insomnia and mood regulation for nearly five years. Now, smoothies for breakfast and for most lunches have become my routine. I try to keep them very healthy and filling, using organic fruits and vegetables, Activia or similar Yoplait product, and sometimes soy milk (I’m lactose intolerant). My bowel movements have become very regular, and copious, once or twice per day. But my flatulence has also become very regular, and both my gas and my stool smell different and more foul than before the diet change. Does this mean what I’m doing is unhealthy, or can it mean that I am achieving my goal of cleansing my system of nasties?

I want to know if colon cleansing is possible with the ingredients which we use in preparing food
