[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 355296, member: 3444"] Thanks everyone. The GI just phone me from the road -- said the nurse's emails were a bit long-winded so she wanted to call me direct... wants us to stop the Miralax and the enemas over the weekend to get a better picture of what's going on. Thinks it's possible those things are masking what's really going on. Said it could be anything from an infection to an impaction. He's drinking lots of fluids, so that's not an issue. Right now he doesn't feel much like eating or walking or anything else because his pain is back up to a 5, so he's home again. :( We know there's no obstruction because stool is (more or less) trickling out -- so I don't think this is an emergency situation. And his labs just a few weeks ago were perfect, so we can be fairly confident this is not Crohn's related. I'm having him note when he feels the urge to go, and when he produces something (asked him to do it a while ago, but he forgot). Hopefully that will help the assessment, too. [/QUOTE]
