just got out of hospital, Drs thought it was a developing a bowel obstruction, ordered cat scan, they found fluid filled small bowel loops in the lower pelvic measures up to 3.1 cm, the distal ileum is normal in caliber, appearance could reflect a developing distal small bowel obstruction & masses of stool build up, the stool build up is a recurring problem, have been hospitalized 3 times in 5 yrs with massive stool build-up hospital stays of 4 to 5 days. I take large doses of miralax oral 35g per day,Metamucil 5.8 g per day I do 50 minutes per day on tread-mill 3 miles eat healthy, I am 65 yrs female
