    Ok, I am not sure how well this works on adults. It is similar to what was used on my son when he was young. It worked well, as did gently stroking from the waist to the bottom of the spine with both hands.

    The positive is, no harm in trying as it is none intrusive. :)
    (ETA: of course this statement may not apply, not sure of your tumour placement)

    (Sorry this was the closest video I could find for the methodology, it's a bit annoying)

    Thanks @middlehaitch but I can't touch my stomach due to the growth.

    Well last night I tried the colon cleanse and this morning tried the creatine. And I'm not *kitten* ing you, there is still nothing :/

    Going to try the same again until I can see the Doc Monday.

    Do you feel overfull when you eat? Any nausea? Heck, if it was me I'd stick to water until Monday.

    After eating only 750-850 calories a day for weeks I don't feel full. Far from it.

    No, I don't feel nauseous at all. I think the pain killers are hiding most of the problems. I just know it's been 6 days now and the thought of the food rotting away in there isn't the happiest thought B)

    Oops, just noticed that *kitten* ting escsped the kitten filter :D

    It impacts and gets harder like little nuggets. It can become a blockage. This is why I'm worried about more being added on top because it can make it much worse.

    Opioid painkillers can cause that issue (has that already been covered?) Miralax works the best of anything I've tried, if magnesium citrate doesn't do the trick.

    I would most definitely try this. 6 days is a long time, a suppository will at least get whats down the bottom end out.

    The constipation by itself isn't necessarily that concerning, but check this page, and watch for these other symptoms:

    https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/intestinal-obstruction/symptoms-causes/syc-20351460

    It's not at all uncommon for IBS-C sufferers to go longer than you have, including myself. A Gastroenterologist recommended an osmotic laxative (Miralax type), but be aware that nothing you take will mix water back in after its been removed.

    When my father was on incredibly large doses of painkillers for end stage prostate cancer, he had this same issue. Senna, etc were not working and he was incredibly uncomfortable.

    His hospice nurse recommended a “Brown Cow”, which I thought was her own creation until a google search. Apparently it’s an old school remedy - it worked, with epic results...

    Equal parts Milk of Magnesia and Prune Juice, warmed up, drunk quickly. Our version had apple sauce mixed in as well, but I don’t see that in any of the recipes online.

    To paraphrase Lock, Stock “ It was emotional”. Be forewarned.

    Question: are you a mathematician? If so, you could try working it out with a pencil. I saw it on the internet.

    Just kidding. This salty old man I used to work with told me.

    And don't try it. It's terribly dangerous.

    Can you do liquid glycerin? I remember that being on the list when I was pregnant. It's an experience but it works.
