Ok everyone this is VERY TMI that's why I put it in the title, so if you can't handle this, do not read any further. Anyways, I really have to poop. Like it's a very uncomfortable feeling. I was on the toilet for the last 20 minutes and nothing will come out. I feel so uncomfortable right now. I'm literally laying on my bed sideways because it hurts to stand up or sit up. I can't even walk, it feels so bad. It's like it's almost out, but not quite. Ugh.
I am home by myself and don't have any enemas or laxatives. Please help and give suggestions.

    Lol. I really feel so uncomfortable I don't even want to drive to the store. I mean I can my boyfriend to get it for me, but we've only been dating for 2 months, and I've never farted or peed in front of him. I feel like this would be a total turn off. :(

    Nah, just ask him to stick it up your pooper. He'll be thrilled you asked. Two birds, one stone.

    Call your mom/dad/other family member to get it for you? You can always call for an ambulance. I've put myself through this pain for a day and a half and finally gave in and bought some milk of magnesia.

    How long has it been?
    If it has been more than a week it becomes a medical emergency.

    Not for Info ATM but for the future

    Eat Flax seed daily. My Wife goes once every 3 days but if she eats flax seed she goes daily.
    Its more natural then taking a pill and really isn't that expensive.

    go to walmart and get a bottle of magnesium citrate, its what is most recommended for colon scopes. Been in the med field for years. GO NOW before it turns into something

    Drink lots of water and eat an apple or prunes. Prunes ALWAYS work for me.

    2 table spoons sea salt in hot water, drink it and hang near a toilet for the next 1 to 6 hours. No joke

    OMG. I'm both laughing hysterically and blushing from this.

    Seriously, get your boyfriend to go and buy you a stool softener or something. Make sure you eat enough fats. That really helps.

    DO NOT.

    I REPEAT.

    DO NOT CALL AN AMBULANCE FOR A FRIGGING LAXATIVE.

    Being constipated is NOT an emergency. Jesus H Christ that is terrible advice.

    But seriously, if you are hurting you need to take meds and go talk to your doctor. Being constipated for too long can definitely cause issues, some of which require hospitalization.
  • If you have a high fiber diet, it may help to incorporate more fats. If I eat an excessive amount of fiber on any given day, I'll usually balance it out by going ham on some peanut butter. this would probably be more preventative than anything, however. Vinegar or olive oil may help if you're unable to get to the store.

    Personally, I'd ask your BF to be a champ and get some meds. My GF (now wife) got the stomach flu 2 or 3 weeks after we started dating. Scary things happen with the stomach flu, but I was more concerned about her well-being than being squeamish about bodily functions.

    This cracks me up. 80% of the people in the ER are bowel related. Literally most of them are full of *kitten*. Lol

    Go get some Taco Bell, that will clean you right out and if it doesn't then at least you had a tasty snack.

    Btw this is one of the reasons I joined this website, to be healthier. Of course I want to look amazing, but there's no point in looking good if you are always on the damn toilet trying to get mr. pooper to stop being so shy.

    And I actually weighed myself after the poop, because it was a massive one. I weigh 152.2 pounds! That's my lowest weight in a long time actually! So yay for pooping! :-) Seriously though that thing was massive, thank goodness for a plunger. ;)

    To be honest, I have also had the issue recently. Ever since I switched to a high protein diet (which has otherwise helped me retain my muscle while losing weight, and recover faster from lifting), I only go like... once every three days? It's terrible. I have a flax seed and aloe natural supplement that helps along, but it scares me to have to rely on something like that to manage, because I legitimately don't function properly unless I take it.

    .....It has been bugging the heck out of me.

    Add 2 level teaspoons of non-iodized sea salt to a full quart of lukewarm water. Drink the entire quart of salt and water. Stay close to the toilet. There will be a mass exodus within the hour.

    Glad your issue has been resolved. I don't know how often this happens to you but I used to have massive colics after losing a lot of weight unhealthily fast 10 years ago. I was stuck in the bathroom, actually slept in there because I kept hoping something would come. Turns out i had gallbladder stones.

    :laugh: That was the first thing I thought of a suggestion.
