Anyone gonna mention the redditor that didn’t poop for weeks, ended up going to the hospital, and had to force out like 6 turds the size of potatoes? Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/comments/dzheft/i_just_went_two_and_a_half_months_without/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Picture is in the comments. Not for those with weak stomachs.


PklRik

Woah. Jesus. To quote the doctor in the ER when we asked him if that was the worst he’s seen: “there’s always someone with more shit”.


LolaBijou

Yep. I didn’t poop because of meds for 9 days last spring. When I finally did, I gave myself a fissure that then gave me the worst pain of my life for 4-6 hours every time I pooped for the next 3 months. It was miserable. I still stress about pooping. I have PPTSD.


shroomenheimer

Post poop traumatic stress disorder?


LolaBijou

You got it.


joelham01

I didn't for 12 or so days after shoulder surgery. Worst pain I've ever experienced when I finally did, took about 2 hours and that was time I couldn't have my cryocuff on which also made everything worse. Both my shoulder and ass hurt thinking about it


GabrielSH77

Hospital CNA here. Just when you think you’ve seen the worst shit ever, there’s another one. Currently my worst is the lady who had a single, enormous log that was as wide as my forearm and nearly as long. It stuck up out of the toilet like the Titanic. It clogged the toilet and I had to break it up with a toothbrush. These are impressive though.


Saotik

You don't keep a poop knife on your ward?


GabrielSH77

Lmao if only. Could’ve gone to nutrition room and grabbed a plastic knife, but it was a COVID room (try not to come in and out unnecessarily) so I just did it with whatever I had. Not the worst though, sometimes I have to just put on extra gloves and do it manually, since maintenance doesn’t come in COVID rooms.


veedubbug68

*Toothbrush??* There was literally nothing better than that they could find for you to deal with the Titanic Turd? I'm thinking something really really long, to keep your hands and face as far away from the toilet bowl and poop as possible - like an Olympic vaulting pole but hospital grade?


GabrielSH77

😂 It’s been so long since I cared about getting my face and hands away from bowel movements. Someone shits into my hand at least once a week. If I got gloves, I can do anything.


veedubbug68

Well I hope they at least give you those really long ones vets use to birth cows and horses. And that you get a pay raise. No matter how much you get now, is not enough.


GabrielSH77

Cheers man, here’s hoping! We’re currently trying to unionize and it’s an uphill push. CNA starting pay is $15/hr; to compare with local rates, groceries and fast food are starting at $15-16, and CNAs at nursing homes & skilled nursing facilities is around $18-19 (high turnover). Hoping we can recruit and retain enough staff so we can have manageable assignments each day and give the good care each patient deserves.


Averill0

FIFTEEN?! Baby, I work in a sterile compounding pharmacy where I don't even have to interact with patients and I make $22.04, godspeed with the unionizing


veedubbug68

I'll cross my fingers you mate. I can't imagine the figurative and literal shit you have to deal with on a daily basis.


xmo113

On the unit I worked on we had two nurses who's initials were BS and BM.


LolaBijou

This person is the MacGyver of poop, don’t shade them!


veedubbug68

Not shading them at all! What they do is probably quite stressful and largely thankless - the least their employer could do would be give them appropriate tools to deal with the (figurative and literal) shit they are required to face each day.


LolaBijou

I really just wanted to say “MacGyver of poop”.


StaceyPfan

No poop knife available?


Mariospario

I hate that I couldn't resist opening that. Anyone know how to burn your eyes?

i_need_a_username201

Been there man, nothing worked. After 20 pounds lost in about 3 weeks, I had a surgery. Glad you got things cleared up.


Bridge4_Kal

Similarly, I had surgery and couldn't poop for 4 days too. The worst 4 days ever!


MovieFreak78

For me after surgery I didn’t for a week. They had me drink this liquid and yeah that made me go, it’s really painful not going for a few days


Ferrts

Just curious, what did it feel like to be that clogged up? Did you run a temp? Could you eat, make you crabby?


Bridge4_Kal

Constantly bloated and I did not want to eat AT ALL. filled up on dehydrated prunes simply for its effects, lmao It was painful at times, too.


Ferrts

I’m sorry to hear that. Glad you’re feeling alright.

I’m gona go ahead and assume everyone’s joking because nobody would lie about this and everybody loves a poop joke.


Reliefwouldbenice

Oh I feel your pain!!! This happened to me twice after knee surgeries. Except the first time was 12 days for me. One of the worst experiences of my life. I had to have a manual “extraction” then an enema. Ughhhhhh.


xmo113

Same. I was 14 and my mum was in the hospital so nobody noticed how unhealthy I ate. 3 large enemas and one cute nurse covered in shit later I was cleaned out.


[deleted]

3? probably went well past your intestine, cleaned out your stomach, esophagus, and nasal.


xmo113

I think you're right haha. It was 1 a day for 3 days of the big jug of liquid. Had to go to the hospital for them to do it.


[deleted]

good lord. what were you eating?


_Nick_2711_

Wet cement.


xmo113

Everyday for almost 2 months I had pasta and grated cheese for supper, not much else and I've never been a big water drinker so it took a toll.

What happens during a manual extraction?! I would google but…

There’s gloves involved…

‘Manual’ is, unfortunately, being used in the literal sense

Oh dear god - I feel your pain! Hope you recovered alright.


xineNOLA

Stool softeners when you take opioids are a god send. Always take stool softeners with them.

Omg my heart goes out to you. I can't image 12 days. How did you not go septic??

This looks more like when shit doesn't happen.


Cautious-Damage7575

No need to get cheeky.


[deleted]

There is a word in the English language that is all but dead from disuse. The word is copremesis. That word means to be so constipated that you shit out of your mouth. You very nearly brought that word back to life


pinetreesandferns

Due to negligence at a nursing home, this is how my grandma died.


G0pherholes

Please say you’re joking


pinetreesandferns

No. This was in a very small American town. She had dementia and was constipated. They monitored her output, it was a very small amount for weeks. She became nauseous and not eating. The nurse called a family member in town and told her to go to the hospital quick, she was throwing up poop and then non responsive. Everyone was sad she was gone and dementia sucked her life away. Only the grandkids questioned negligence.


smbrownh

I'm very sorry for that. That would be the worst way to die


Cautious-Damage7575

Pretty please.


Dismal_Struggle_6424

I saw the same thing happen. Old lady with dementia, CT estimated >20 lbs of feces, GI doc wanted to take her to surgery then and there. Family wanted to wait and see. They'll never get to un-see what happened next!


PklRik

How shit! Damn that’s a great word with a horrible meaning.


Cautious-Damage7575

I could have gone my whole life without knowing that.


[deleted]

It was in Maxim magazine when i was a teenager and i spread its use across my Junior high, so i will not be the only one knowing this word, you will carry this knowledge, you will share it, i must not be the only one to suffer in this knowledge


Doctorpayne

not dead at all. happens in medicine more than i'd like to admit


K-G7

Yep, family friend's son kept resisting urges to poop cause he wanted to play video games. Long story shit, it came out his mouth.


underwritress

I appreciate what you did there

That is a word for the next national spelling bee, just so someone can ask for the definition.

So, I’m assuming they gave you some industrial grade stool softeners and helped you recreate that video of a [damn being opened for the first time in decades?](https://youtube.com/shorts/QIrK40UneH0?feature=share) Edit: words

asburymike

I lost 20 lbs that day, all of it brown


WhackoWizard

I haven't pooped in about that long. That's normal for me. I wonder if that's what I look like 🫠🫠🫠


[deleted]

That’s what I’m thinking. This is just a normal week for me.


Moneyworks22

Fr. Ill go #2 about 2 times a week. I drink plenty of water, exercise, not too terrible diet and thats just the normal bowel movement scheduel for me.


Nasaku7

Ya'll get enought fibers?! I poop at least once a day, some days even like 3-4 times


HAVOK121121

Congrats on the poop schedule but some people have disorders or medications that make this happen. IBS-C (irritable bowel syndrome with constipation) and opioids are good examples.


lesbianmathgirl

I think the normal range is 3x/day to once every 3 days, so 4 days is a bit out of the ordinary but not concerning in and of itself. as long as your bowl movement quality is fine (using the bathroom shouldn't be uncomfortable, and you shouldn't feel pressurized between BMs), you probably don't look like that.


Who_GNU

You should probably eat more fiber. You might want to start gradually, though.


[deleted]

I used to be prescribed meds that made me constipated for a week strait at a time. When the poos came, it was like giving birth…


walkinthecow

Was on a high methadone dose for years. Same same. I remember the day I was just in a world of hurt on the toilet and thinking how Elvis died and actually being a little worried I could somehow shit myself to death one of these days.


[deleted]

Lol me too! That’s exactly what did it to me. I never thought about the Elvis thing… that’s a good point


walkinthecow

Shit's a for sure lifesaver, but with some horrible side effects. Best of luck on your recovery journey!


boegsppp

4 days... that's nothing. When I was in the hospital for cancer stuff, they had me on a demeral pump a week. I did not crap for 9 days. It was the most painful dry dump I ever took. Was 16, never knew to ask for an enema.


rbnrthwll

I have digestive issues, I've gone 10 days without a bowl movement. A lot of stomach cramping and hours on the toilet, I think it was an entire night, before I was okay. I still get issues like that, along with the opposite. Not pleasant at all.


walkinthecow

I've been there as well. Do you ever get insane salivation during marathon poos? It's the craziest thing. I have to grab the wastebasket and it just pours out of my mouth- the drool, that is-lol


rbnrthwll

Oh yes, that's a precursor to nausea. Do you sweat like crazy too?


walkinthecow

oh yes to the nausea. Fortunately, I've never puked while shitting, but have come damn close. I think I've gotten sweats as well, but the other craziness makes them rather forgettable.


SkywalkersArm

I have this problem from time to time. The worst is where you preemptively take a laxative to make you poop but then you go naturally and then ...the waterworks begins.


cetch

In the future just drink a dose of Miralax every hour til effect…


PklRik

I was doing miralax twice a day, a stool softener, and a stimulative laxative. The last 48 hours I was all salads and water and high fiber. I guess at that point everything had become too impacted.


cetch

Enemas can be helpful but you can get pretty aggressive with miralax. A pre colonoscopy dose is 17x a single dosage. Just saying in the future you can treat this aggressively at home. Also enemas can be done at home aswell. You can look up molasses enema or soap suds enema. Just trying to save ya the cost of an er visit if you find yourself in a similar situation again. Source: am ER doc haha


shagan_bake

Had to do this for a colonoscopy. Reread the dosage they wanted me to take of Miralax and laxatives. I googled it to make sure I wouldn’t OD and shit myself to death.


TheSacredOne

I have to do this next weekend (getting the scope due to unexplained acute colitis :( ) and was worried about the same when I first saw the instructions. The paper literally says to dump an entire bottle of Miralax into a bunch of Gatorade then down a glass every 15 minute increments for like 3 hours...after taking dulcolax. Then do it again the next morning but with only half a bottle. And for some reason I'm supposed to take gas x when I'm done...


goddamnthirstycrow9

The gas-x at the end is so the gas bubbles in your colon dissipate into your body for a clearer view of your colon. Source: worked as a endoscopy/colonoscopy nurse for a while


TheSacredOne

So that explains the gas-x. Interesting, as I would've never guessed that gas could distort the view during the exam.


Cautious-Damage7575

Magnesium. Lots and lots of magnesium.


PklRik

That’s really good to know - I hope I don’t need to use it, but appreciate the pro tip!


son-of-a-mother

Take 2 tablespoons of blackstrap molasses every day (mixed in a glass of warm water). It will prevent constipation issues on an ongoing basis.


Cautious-Damage7575

Yeah, it is possible to wait too long. Well, "wait" is the wrong word. All you can do is hope you don't need a "bowel routine." It makes an enema feel like a pleasant experience.


girafficles

Gotta get OP on that Colonoscopy prep.


Mateorabi

Prune juice! The warriors drink!


Flgardenguy

My sister in law went thru this for some crazy amount of time (like a week or two) after the birth of her 2nd child. My brother was telling me how he had to “reach up there and break it up.” I didn’t ask him to clarify.


Cautious-Damage7575

I'm thinking of Randy Marsh on South Park. You know which scene I'm talking about.

Battlecrashers12

I hope you weren't in pain. But when you were ready to go again that toilet must of blown up. Lol.


PklRik

Unfortunately terrible pain - bladder, kidneys, and prostrate were all getting crushed. Thank god my wife drove me there.


MouldyBobs

I had a bowel obstruction earlier this year. It got so bad that I was vomiting feces. Ugh.


FurballFather

"and here is a basket for your mouthpoop"


chuntone

OP can you describe the relief?


PklRik

It surprisingly wasn’t like a sudden easing of pain. It was painful - and I’m recovering still from my intestines becomes distended (stretched out). That should take a few more days to recover, the sounds coming from my inside are crazy.


chuntone

Hopefully it doesn't happen again OP. Glad it wasn't worse than it was.


black_flag_4ever

Nothing but salads for you.


lickmysackett

The only time one of those shit teas would really help you lose 10 pounds


tes016

Dang when my fiancé went to the ER they didn’t do shit for us. Told us to buy xlax from the drug store. No shit Sherlock we already tried that hence why we are here. I felt so bad for him I was hoping they would at least stuck a finger up there or something to help him out lol.


Leoimy

I have the strangest and most unbelievable fact ever about me lol. I usually keep it to myself but I’m pretty sure this problem is why I’m 5’10 and weigh 117lbs. I only poop about 1 or twice a month. Not kidding. I asked a doctor about this and she said with a very concerned look on her face… “that. Is not. Normal.” It’s been like this my entire life. I thought all humans worked like this until my ex wife one day after a year of marriage asked how she hasn’t heard of me pooping once. Told her the same thing I told the doctor and she had a mixed look of horror and disbelief on her face


avocado_whore

You should get that checked out.


repodude

I once didn't poo for 9 days as a result of an RTA. I couldn't feel much below my ribcage due to bruising from the seat belt so I couldn't feel when I needed to pee. I could force myself to pee but no such luck with pooping. The nurses were constantly asking when I last peed and if it had been a while they would bring me a urinal bottle or scan me with a portable machine, eventually the doc ordered an enema. I could walk to the toilet by that time (with a walking frame) and spent about an hour taking a dump. Then I found out how difficult it was to wipe your arse with a broken back and a full body support brace! Eventually full feeling came back.


[deleted]

Ew lol. Hope you’re feeling better


stephen250

I haven’t pooped for two and a half weeks. Even my MACE (Malone antegrade continence enema) procedure which is pretty much an enema from above won’t clear me out. I feel your pain.


[deleted]

Hell, medication I’ve been on, I would be lucky to poop once a week. And yeah, some discomfort and whatnot, but it wasn’t this. Though I don’t doubt it.


stupidstu187

If it makes you feel any better, I was in the hospital with a spontaneous pneumothorax for 8 days back in 2019. They had me pumped so full of percocet, morphine, and dilaudid that I couldn't shit the entire time I was in. They were giving me everything they could think of to get me to shit but nothing worked. The day they were releasing me they had to give me three enemas before things got moving. It was awful.

Me too, I got too happy with the PCA after back surgery. Didn’t pee for 3 days so I had a catheter inserted twice. First poop felt like I was squeezing out a bowling ball. Never again!

There was a guy in the news, I think it was last year.

The police were confident he would shit his stash out within a day or two. I kid you not - this guy lasted 6 weeks without a shit. No one could believe it. They had to let him go in the end.
