For a 44 year old, I was still reasonably fit and active. I got a lot of exercise through walking, swimming and SCUBA diving, in spite of my desk job at the hospital. Constipation was still a ‘funny’ subject, but less so as I had become aware of its sometimes dire clinical consequences in my work. I was enjoying life, but things were about to go downhill fast.
I have to be graphic – passing stools was getting more and more difficult and the result was hard and dark in colour. Blood was sometimes present. I realised that I could actually feel my bowels through the wall of my abdomen on occasions, which worried me. My doctor made an appointment with a consultant who made an examination, followed up with a sphigmoidoscopy. The only abnormalities were two ‘diverticulae’, small balloon like protrusions which were highly unlikely to have caused the pain. The Movicol did relieve the problem for a while and I was grateful for the respite.
I had meant to get my diet in order for some time and this was the wakeup call I needed. I had some hard stools and there was some bleeding, but things were otherwise OK. Then, when I was sitting at my desk at work I experienced an incredible pain in my abdomen. I honestly felt like I was being run through with a red hot poker. I was immediately put in a wheelchair and taken to A and E. I was in terrific pain and it was really embarrassing to be literally crying in front of student nurses. An X-ray revealed probable compaction in my bowel. I was given a strong laxative to get things moving again.
This was the wake-up call I needed. I was really anxious about another episode like that and diving was really out of the question until I found a solution. I realised I couldn’t just stay on laxatives forever. That was when I came across the field of colon cleansing and detoxification. I was shocked to discover how much waste can accumulate and what could be living in it. I realised how important ‘friendly’ bacteria were in the fight against harmful pathogens. The product that appeared to have the most people saying good things about it was Bowtrol Colon Cleanser.
I wasn’t expecting instant results with the Bowtrol. There were signs on the third day, but it was only on the fourth day that it took effect and boy did it take effect! I should warn you now that, if you are going to start taking Bowtrol you need to be ready for dramatic results. You might be well advised to take a few days off work if you work in close confines as you may end up very unpopular with your colleagues! Fortunately a hospital has lots of WCs hidden in seldom visited places.
In a few days things were back to normal – or normal as it had been a few years previously. It was blissful! I really felt a new spring in my step. There are a lot of other products out there of which I’ve tried a few with mixed, but mostly positive results. However, the confidence that my initial use of Bowtrol Colon Cleanser gave me meant I have always returned to that product.
I had great results with Bowtrol Colon Cleanser. Read more about Bowtrol Colon Cleanser on my web page where I have posted a complete Bowtrol Colon Cleanser review.
