Stomach Problems

Caring for someone with MS
1

Hello

My husband had been diagnosed for 7 years and not really coping well.

His mobility has got worse and in the last 4 weeks having awful stomach problems. Not really eating and having problems going to the toilet.

He spoke to the doctor and got some drinks to help but still not seeing a great improvement.

He’s not a great communicator and I’m at the end of my tether. Trying to work from home, look after him and move house.

I wondered if the stress of trying to move in a pandemic has caused this and if I should just see how things go?

just wondered if stomach problems were an expected side effect and how best to manage.

feel me keep trying to get him to eat and go back to the doctor is just making things worse.

thanks

Hi Anon, wow…you do have a lot going on. Moving house on top of an ill partner, covid and holding down a job would be enough to tip anyone off the scale.

If your man isnt eating right, then toilet troubles are bound to follow.

Try to make sure he gets a balanced diet…enough if the portions are small ones.

I use laxido to help me go for a no. 2,…wouldnt go without.

Hope things improve.
