so my son was told he had a bowel obstruction. not our first go around. he seems to have them chronically. usually when they have us do a medical cleanout at home for them the stool he passes becomes very dark. This time it is getting lighter with time and has passed nothing dark at all. Usually they have us use large amounts of mirolax but this time they have us using magnesium citrate, dulcolax, chronulac, and senokot. is this normal for there to be nothing dark, which we were told the dark was the old causing the obstruction, with the different medications he is using this time, or is there something to worry about?
