Jaxi,

Do you know the cause of the constipation? Is it nerve related or medication related? Have you tried administering enemas to yourself? I know I didn't answer your question, but thought I would comment since maybe there is another way to help.

I've never heard of anyone wit PNE resorting to a colostomy although that option has entered my head before when reading some people's posts. Is your doctor offering you that option?

Well, that's a tough decision. Can you try all the alternative options first?
