I was due for my next Simponi injection today. It's still sitting in the fridge and I'm procrastinating. I suppose that if I knew it was helping I would have taken it by now. Meanwhile, I'm laying in bed and decided tomorrow will be fine to take it.
All I know is that over the past few months I'm 18-20 lbs lighter than I was. This is the lowest weight I've been at since afternoon surgery in July of 2000.
Just about all my novel movements are mushy and very loud. Kind of like a really loud wet fart. I am not trying to be funny bit rather trying to see if anyone can relate. Like a loud motor sound almost everytime I go for the past few weeks. I can feel the inflammation, if you know what I mean. My bowel movement are very consistent in that they are always very loud and mushy. I can't seem to shake it. Not sure if my lower 84weight is a problem. I certainly don't have any extra baby fat on me as I used to have a little.
If anyone can relate, please advise. I feel like I have been going through the same pattern of poor bowel function for quite some time. The loud motor-like sounds each and every time I defecate just gives me that weak / sick feeling.
Meanwhile, if the Simponi isn't doing much to help, could it be harming me?
I can't say or prove that my diet makes any difference in my bowel activity at this point. No matter what I eat, I feel like it goes through me way too fast day after day.
I have religiously been taking the same daily dose of Codeine for many years. I'm scared to increase it because 360mg / day is already plenty.
Your thoughts?
