Hooray for you! I brought a squirt bottle to fill with warm water to wash the backside after bm's. Wiping = butt burn, and you won't be able to shower right away. Also earplugs unless you have a private room. This sounds weird, but also chewing gum. When I had ileus, one of the residents gave me a stick of gum and within two hours I was going again. I looked it up later, and that is known to work. Just don't swallow it!
