Eva, Pam;
The narcotic meds as I mentioned before really are a trade-off. Unfortunately, the "potty" issues are a nasty problem. If it weren't for that, the 60 mgs.of Oxy 4 times a day, in addition to other meds I take , do help me deal with the pain.
The only thing that helps me not get backed up with the constipation is taking a full dose of Miralax twice a day. As Pam mentioned "droppings and overflow" is pretty nasty; but better than the complications from being backed up.
Eva, as you write, "it is a sorrowful thought to have these meds in our life forever sucks".
