Reply to "Hospitalized with blockage"

I picked up a little trick that I have been using most of my life...a squeezed lemon in hot water in the morning before anything else...it gets the guts cleared out nicely and the pouch flowing (unless you do not want it to in which case, don't!)

I did it for a week straight and in spite of eating like, well, a tourist in a foreign country with an 'all inclusive ' gastronomic restaurant (never, never, never again...up 3lbs in 7 days!!!) I managed to not get a blockage, gain more than my luggage weighed or turn into a beach ball.

My pouch loved the morning routine...I even sucked on fresh oranges every morning without trouble.

Blockages are not a given even if you had one...they can be but not always. Do not panic.

You may just be dealing with swollen guts that are taking their sweet time to settle down.
