The colonic irrigation nozzle, that is. In keeping with my diet and exercise
experiments of late, including Lyle's PSMF, blood tests, ultrasound tests,
etcetera, I decided to try a colonic irrigation. Only $65 and an hour of my
time, so, what the hell.
First, the essential assumption of colonic irrigation is that there is hard,
crusted on, plaque like, [censored] stuck to the inside of the large intestine. If
true, it really doesn't say anything about the harmful nature of such build
up, but, common sense would lead one to conclude it can't be a good thing.
Second, I am an expert on the contents of various portions of the
intestines. I have been dealing with ostomies in patients for many years.
Jejunostomies, ileostomies, colonostomies at various portions of the colon.
Each section has characteristics associated with the waste material,
especially differences in consistency.
Third, I am a super doopery expert on the contents of my own intestines.
Since being on this diet for two months, I have only one bowel movement a
week, and that is assisted by Milk of Magnesia (a saline laxative) and
Dulcolax (a stimulent laxative). I know what can be induced to come out with
fiber, stool softeners, and laxatives.
Fourth, the machinery used in colonic irrigation uses transparent plumbing,
so I can see what's coming out. If there's something up there, that would
not otherwise come out, but is, I'd know it.
All that said, a pleasant young lady inserted the irrigation tubing (well
lubricated, not too uncomfortable) and began an hour of in and out, with
abdominal massaging, and foot massaging to "relax the colon" (whatever, felt
good).
And, I'll be damned! There was stuff up there that I didn't realize. The
first few in and out cycles didn't flush much out, but, each successive fill
got further and further up there, and each softened whetever "build up"
might be there. After a few cycles, a lot...A LOT...of pea to marble sized
hard black [censored] began coming out. Where the HELL did that [censored] come from? It
was of a consistency that NEVER came out my ass before, despite bowel
cleansing procedures with fibers and laxatives. Additionally, it was FAR
harder than fecal material normally associated with anything but the very
distal end of the large intestine.
The only conclusion was that this was the claimed plaque like build up on
the walls of my large intestine.
So, it was a success. My weight, after fully emptying any residual liquid
from my intestines, was 2 pounds less. Two pounds of old stuck [censored]. Not
bad. I may do it again in a few months.
Next time y'll want to tell me to "shove it up my ass", I may take the
suggestion.
