I began letting my friend Marianne give me the enemas every Tuesday and Friday. I did feel a lot better after the second set of enemas this past Tuesday. She will be giving me my enemas this morning again. I will write in a few weeks, as I will know better how these enema treatments are going. She prefers to give me the enemas in the morning. I usually get up and have breakfast around 7:30 in the morning and then she prepares the enema and begins the treatment around 8:30. She told me just to continue my routine of getting up and sitting on the toilet each and every morning, and not to worry that the enema will still do its job. I did speak to her about me getting a large enema bag that she can re-use over and over again.
The enemas do make me feel better, even though they are somewhat uncomfortable at times. She also checks the results of each enema to see what I am passing. She said a nice honey-brown color of well-formed quarter-size stool is what is a good solid BM.
One question: I showed Marianne the flowmaster enema bag with the Higginson syringe and she said that could help make the enema go easier. She also feels that using a barium-type nozzle will also make it easier to keep the enema nozzle in place as she sometimes will massage my belly and it will make it easier to change positions, like from Sims to knee-chest or onto my back as the enema is being given. She usually will let it go in a while and then stop it at times. She never just continues to let it flow in like I remember my mother doing when I was younger.
One thing for sure, Kristina — the gas has really been reduced a lot. I will keep you posted.
