partial blockage that passed

Yes I have. I went to emergency and was admitted for approximately three days. No solids, an iv drip and monitored by doctors. It’s too important an issue to manage yourself. Get yourself to a doctor. 

I plan to next time.....as soon as I get cramps again.  I ate toast and applesauce yesterday and been clear.l so I think passed. I plan to try more food today.  I hate this but grateful it passed

I have had several of these kind of partial blockages, the pain was so intense I had to go to hospital to get IV and morphine. 

The only way I can prevent these kinds of blockages is to not eat anything that is hard to digest. Everything needs to be softish, no seeds, nuts, peels, hardly any veggies.

Yes....that's what I've been doing since my last incident.....just eating soft stuff. I'm hoping I can work back up to where I was at but I know it would be a gamble. I'm so sorry to hear that u have to deal with this too. 

It’s generally best to stick to liquids when intestinal contents aren’t moving well.

I'm wondering if Pepto Bismal might slow things down even more?

I do take pepto when things are crazy.  The blockages are so scary

I'm thinking that slowing things down may not be what you want with a blockage? 

Yes. Agree. When I have the blockage, I do not take pepto. Just when things r ok but running fast.  One extreme to another

Makes sense. I had misunderstood that the pepto was to help the blockage.

One extreme to the other - story of the j poucher's life!

Agree
