thanks for the info. They kept me in the hospital one time when I had what I

thought was an attack but the enzymes were normal. They said my colon was

packed. They did an enema and then I think mag citrate after that. I guess I

didn't actually have a blockage or the enema and stuf wouldn't have worked.

They did an x-ray that night and that's how they found my colon was packed.

Seems like they did a ct scan the next day. I had to drink some junk before it.

The thing is that I didn't even feel constipated and had even gone to the

bathroom earlier that day. It was pretty embarrassing having an enema in the ER

and having to go on a portable potty. Since then I've made more of an effort to

make sure I go regularly.

I have had many episodes of the same pain with normal enzymes. My GI says

that's cause my problem is being caused by adhesions which sometimes block the

flow of bile to the point of irritating the pancreas and liver, sometimes just

enough to irritate the liver and sometimes just enough to cause severe pain. I

am scheduled to see a surgeon for removal of the adhesions on Dec 4th.

Glad to know you had a good ER doc to catch the blockage in your wife as I

understand it can be quiet serious.

Re: Weston - blockage

Hi ,

She was constipated for a few days, had what she thought was an

attack, so we went to the hospital. I believe it was a combination

of Xray with her drinking a contrast solution. Where the contrast

stopped on the xray revealed the location of the blockage.

Removal is done by ERCP.

All of her normal signs of a pancreatitis attack were apparent,

except for the pain going all the way through to her back.

Once they removed the bizoar, she was fine and went home within a few

hours.

Debs,

Geez. I sure don't want that to happen to me. I pay much more attention now so

hopefully it won't happen again.

I went to bed and laid there for an hour and a half trying to go back to sleep -

no luck. I'm going to try again now.
