Dulcolax

[queenofmean]

My GP prescribed these as I was having MAJOR problems. I took one last night and things seem to have worked. Should I take one tonight just to make sure I'm clear and to encourage things to go back to some sort of normal? He didn't say when to stop but i don't want to end up like this again. Should I wait and see if I have a natural movement myself?

Two of my GP's suspect they know what is causing me to continually be in this state but until I get sent for a scan we won't know for certain.

Ta much

I'd take one tonight then miss a night and see how you get along.

I presume that you mean the suppositories?

No, leave well alone know and see what happens. If in 2-3 days time you still haven't passed a motion, then take another and then juggle with the applications that keep you going every 2-3 days.

Can't resist the old joke about the patient who went back to his GP after being prescribed Dulcolax suppositories ...and said:

I am no bloody better and for all the good that they have done, I might as well have stuffed them up my @.se.

[Mamyalynne]

Oh dear I may have misunderstood, the Dulcolax I take are tablets, sorry.

[Sqad]

Mamy...your guess is as good as mine....they could be tablets.

I've just sprayed water over the desk - again - at the joke Sqad - thank you for the giggle.

These are the tablets yes - wasn't aware there was other kinds lol

[Mamyalynne]

True - if a suppository then I'd miss tonight and wait, otherwise I'd do as I said above, the tablets are not aggressive.

[Sqad]

See mamy......your guess is better than mine ;-)

[Mamyalynne]

It was more a supposition than a guess ;-)
