Problem with Blockages

I am 2 1/2 years post surgery and have recently been having a lot of problems with bowel blockage. So much in fact that I have been admitted to the ER for the pain. I haven't changed anything I have been eating, however maybe my carb intake has increased since my husband has been deployed. He has been gone about 10 months now. I am getting ready to have my abdominalplasty done in less than 10 days. Any idea what could be causing the blockage? I even get enemas and they don't work for almost 8 hours...HELP! I am very uncomfortable!

Hi, I would recomend that you get a follow up appointment with Dr.Weiner. When is the last time you saw him? When you say "blockage" do you mean constipation? I am a nurse and you may need an ultrasound and /or scope done to see what the problem is. You could have a twisted bowel or have adhesions, or other possible complications. Good luck, Tina.
