Voiding “defecography?”

Anyone ever experience this?

https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22333-defecography

Have not experienced this myself. But pooping out a butt full of barium paste doesn’t sound like an interesting way to spend my time unless there’s a clear medical indication for me to do so.

There are several threads or posts about members experiences with Defecography. It seems to be a rather humiliating experience, unless that’s what you’re wanting.

This is fascinating. Thank you for sharing. Would love to be required to have an investigation like this.

She seems quite open talking aboout the peocedure. Wonder what they can do to treat or alleviate a lazy bowel? She has a link to articles on gastroparesis - lazy stomach that is slow to pass food to the small intestine. Thats reflex is controlled by the vagus nerve, and they treat it with diet and modified eating habits. I’d guess (non-medically smart) something similar for lazy bowel. Probably regular enemas too!

"Both machines have an open and airy design to prevent any feelings of claustrophobia. If you are in a traditional MRI machine, which is more like a tube, you’ll remain horizontal on the table and poop into an adult diaper."

Oh my 😄

I am the only one of my parent's 5 children that didn't pursue a career in a medical field. Reading of defecography reinforces my decision to choose high tech over the human body. I admit that many times that I was a bit overwhelmed in the beginning, trying to foresee the business applications of the Internet, which was designed for security not business, but it would sure beat studying the flow of feces through the human body. Dare I say that the latter would be kind of a "Shitty job"?
