Brief Answer:
About constipation
Detailed Answer:
Hello -
You wrote that the doctor put fluid in you: Do you mean she gave you an IV for dehydration, or she gave you an enema through your bottom?
If you have not had a bowel movement for 2 weeks, that would explain the gas and shortness of breath.
Have you tried anything to help so far, such as over the counter laxatives and stool softeners?
