I'll keep her in my thoughts and heart. I wish her well. PH, you are a great friend to share this. Thank you!

Tell her to drink some fresh orange juice if she can Pottershand. It can be good at moving things that are a bit stuck.

Nothing like the internet for sharing! :) I am the only SCT patient they have seen become constipated with chemo. Everyone keeps saying "it will change". I am tempted to make a chart and have people pick odds.......one :poop: game of chance. :roflmao:

Other than this one problem, everyone says I am doing really well. Please keep the prayers and well wishes coming. I haven't been on too much, because I seem to just sleep a lot. I did get some Christmas cards done to day and so some will be coming post Christmas. But that's OK, I had a good excuse for being late this year. :D

Can they give you a stool softener and/or prune juice?

I hope you find relief soon...I feel your pain ((hugs)). I had the same uh, problem when I was hospitalized as a child and I was too afraid to tell anyone.

Thanks for the update. I am glad you are sleeping and getting healing while you sleep. I hope the constipation clears up soon. I know how uncomfortable that can be. Good one on the betting pool.:roflmao:

Hugs and prayers.

Working the holidays at the ER was often sad and stressful. We really appreciated real simple comfort food since all we could get the rest of the time was vendoland.

Real lasagna, or meatloaf & mac 'n cheese, clam chowder, or hot roast beef sandwiches are some I remember being very popular. Lots of people would bring nice sweet treats, but long exhausting shifts needed heftier foods to keep us on our feet.

Though, silly christmas toys that could be abused were fun. A bag of coal 'for the naughty patients' might spark some dark humor laughter...

So Deb...you DON'T want me to share the daily :poop: report? :whistling:

Ah Deb,

thinking of you and hoping that you feel better soon. It must be so uncomfortable.

So today starts day 5 post transplant. All I can say is that I just sleep a lot. All of the doctors and nurses have ear-to-ear grins, so the whole procedure is going well. On my end (well not on one end), it is all pretty uneventful. Wake, sleep, repeat.
