My bestfriends husband hasn’t pooped in 3 MONTHS
Yes you read that right.. he hasn’t had a bowel movement in literally 3 whole months. They’ve tried everything from laxatives, stool softeners, to enemas, he’s even tried manually pulling the stool out of his anus himself & he couldn’t since he said it’s so big and rock hard but we’re thinking maybe he just wasn’t trying as hard as he needs to. Nothing has helped or worked, he went to the hospital twice & they were absolutely no help. The first time they went it had been like a month & a half & they just said he’s fine & sent him home, the second time they said again there’s no fecal impaction so there’s nothing we can do (even tho he has all the symptoms of it) and they sent him home with laxatives & meds to relieve all the gas build up bc he’s been cramping up tremendously & he can barely walk.. he literally goes to work then lays in bed all day & repeats he cannot physically do anything he’s in so much pain. The meds they gave him made it even worse & just made his stomach hurt way more. He’s not eating since eating makes the pain worse & it makes him have to go but then he physically cannot get anything to come out. He’s surviving on mostly gatorade & water back to back like 1 bottle of each at a time & then eats a few bites here and there just to survive. It’s effecting his entire life and his work, he’s been calling out more & more lately and they cannot afford for him to lose his job especially over fucking constipation. His boss knows what is going on & isn’t happy because he was in the bathroom for 2 hours and had to tell him what was happening (embarrassing). He has the urge to go it’s not that he doesn’t feel like he has to, he does he just physically cannot get it out of him. Everytime he tries to poop his asshole bleeds tremendous & I don’t mean like a normal anus fissure like it bleeds to the point my bestfriend (his wife) had to put a towel on the bed bc his asshole was bleeding & leaking that bad… we don’t know what he can do it’s been so long we seriously don’t know how he’s not dead yet because going 3 months without pooping is absolutely insane but we’re worried. Any advice?
