patch is scopolamine for dizziness and nausea.

I don't think I am dehydrated. I may have been a coupla weeks back. The skin pulls back fine and I drink at least a 1/2 gallon of fluids like gatorade, prune juice, soy milk etc.

The 3 weeks of no bowel movements ended when I took the milk of magnesia. Normally during the few bowel movements I have they are hard and small and I may feel nausea or even throw up.

Today I had a very small bowel movement that was soft.

I started with metamucil, prune juice, oatmeal. I should probably eat more as my total calorie intake is not high. I lost about 30lb since beginning Tx.

Tried a suppository. It felt if I was going to have a bowel movement but there was nothing to move.
