23/11/19

Collected Sue from Basildon Cardiology Unit late morning as planned. No complications, not even parking ones - all the disabled slots outside the Cardiology Unit were taken, but I found a spot in the adjacent car park that was almost as good, and we got a free exit permit from the nurses. She still has soreness in her upper chest (predictable part of recovery) and has to be very careful with the catheter site on her wrist but basically all is good. No driving for a few days yet!

As for the constipation problem, some small action this morning but nothing more. Senna doesn't seem up to the task. So later today 'll start on Laxido, which seems to be the favoured laxative on the Myeloma forums. I've been taking one Fybogel sachet a day for several days now, and that does seem to have produced an improvement in output consistency and texture. I also have a packet of gut bacteria capsules (can't remember the name at the moment) which I'll add into the mix  a bit later on.
