Fish Oil capsules [IF they're not too fishy?], Too many of those? Maybe a combo of that and magnesium? And you won't be able to publicly 'contain yourself!' Then work out which does what best and in what quantities.

I am truly surprised that docs, hospitals and rehab facilities don't ever take this aspect into consideration when prescribing pain killers! A few years ago I went in for a surgery and once the anathestic wore off they started in on the pain pills...I politely asked the nurse for ducolax or senecot or 'something' to help offset the possible issue? Nurse went [rightly so] Not in the orders! I replied well can you ask someone? DUH!?????? I got some softener med [don't recall which-but don't care] that helped...wouldn't 'DO' to over strain with stitches in you, now would it?

When and HOW do docs get enlightening 'litebulb' moments were it not for us?

Now, KP? Start writing up your medical HISTORY! Keep it to one page [docs have very short attention spans?] First list big things [Conditions] you have been diagnosed with- such as past surgeries, broken bones, thyroid, eye whatever w/a start time of month/year. Then list all Medications: ALL of them you take daily and how often + which of your docs prescribed it/or what it is for. Next: A list of your docs, their phone #'s and their specialties... so current doc can call them and consult about you. Also? Before you go in June? [not so long from now, really, you know?] Get copies of as many tests done on you since onset as you can get your hands on! Bring copies of those copies and keep the others for yourself. Also Any X-rays, MRI's Sono's and Dexa's or anything else. Get copies to bring and later return or keep for the future. I ALWAYS keep a copy of this 'history' with me in my purse. I always bring an updated copy [if there are changes] whenever I go to any doc + copies [for their records] of most recent blood work or other key test reports. That way, I don't get the same tests done several times over and over. I also get the blood work done at one lab and that way, all the results are done with the same hi/low 'values' that can vary from lab to lab.
Keep asking questions! There isn't one that's a silly one! I know, as I've asked some doozies here myself! Hugs and hope and good things soon! 's - j
