So I had my fistula surgery last Friday and have been taking Tylenol 3 on and off since then. Well, I had had heard that there is the possibility of constipation with opiate use but never experienced it before.
Tonight's pain at treatment was epic. They wanted to take 3 off but I think a lot of that was not fluid.
I started crashing and the gut pain was unbearable. For the first time in my eight months on dialysis, I quit treatment early. I got no flack from the staff so I think they knew I wasn't joking. Luckily, I have a treatment tomorrow (switched from Sat. due to wedding) so I should be okay.
Took a Ducolax and am praying it will do the trick by morning. My gut is screaming.
