Hi my dad has just had a short stay in hospital he had very low potassium and stomach pain his X-ray showed he had an impacted bowel they sorted his potassium levels out but sent him back to his home with laxido and senna. Has anyone any experience of this with their PWD and do they pick up after my dad has lost weight he has no appetite district nurse also came and treated him with suppository he normally has good appetite and is mobile but all he wants to do is sit he also gets pain with this he has always suffered with bowel problems I.e constipation.
