How do I deal with an intestinal obstruction? I’ve been on laxatives for three days with no luck and I’m pooping less. I feel like it’s getting worse but my gastroenterologist appointment isn’t till the second Friday of December.

      @Jay23 it went alright. I had more blood work that didn’t show much. All it revealed is that I also have fatty liver disease. He had me schedule an ultrasound which confirmed the liver disease. It was enlarged and had fatty deposits. I don’t think it showed anything else tho. My gastroenterologist said he doesn’t think it’s what is causing the pain. Since it didn’t reveal the problem, now I’m waiting for an colonoscopy and endoscopy. I’m praying that’ll finally show the problem.

      Btw I had an X Ray done so I’m sure it’s an obstruction.
