For the last two months ish oh has had bowel problems. Almost only liquid coming out in varying consistencies. Drs and nurses are treating it as constipation and recommending more movicol which only seems to give the same result in larger amounts.
Beginning to really worry especially as oh will not go near a hospital and no way would even agree to tests. So worrying times.
Then the icing on the cake- this morning one of the carers left his bed well down-result I caught my foot in the bedding went down flat on my face and arthritic knees. Oh was in his chair three feet away, didn't even notice or ask if I was OK.
Picked myself up and went and sat and cried. Memo to self ring Age uk and get am alarm pendant for myself.
Low, low,low
