Last night I tossed and turned throughout the night getting bits and pieces of sleep now and again until I fell asleep at around 5 am. I had a detox flare-up in the form of some rather unpleasant pain in my behind. Why I was able to distinguish it as a flareup is due to my inability to do an enema. I'll explain. When the muscles in the large intestine constrict and don't allow an enema to be received, it means you're having a detox flare-up. It happens now and again.
So, after I attempted different methods of pain relief throughout the night and having no luck, I attempted an enema to relieve the pain - with no luck. I couldn't retain it, so the pain stayed. Eventually, around 5 am, I fell asleep. I then slept until around 11 am. So, I am typing now at 12:45 am because I am wide awake and my behind hurts again. Hopefully this pain won't become a regular thing. Pain-free is my preferred method of the cancer experience.
