Hi everyone,
I have to decide NOW whether to have a colon resection surgery and am getting scared
facts are:
- been constipated all my life and it got worse with time
- no more bowel movement naturally
- latest trial with a combination of Zelmac+Movicol+Senna+Magnesia failed
- nothing works except 6-7 dulcolax (not a long term solution as it s painful)
- did all rectal tests and everything was fine
- Sitz marker test showed around 90% of markers throughout the colon after 6 days
Can someone give me advice??
Are people who have this surgery in a situation worse than mine?
