Hi all,  For about 3 weeks now I have been having constipation problems..  It all started when I got out of the hospital when I had shingles..  They treated me with zovirax for 10 days...  Now I won't go to the bathroom for about 6 days..  Then when I go it is hard and like pellets.  Also there is all this orange stuff which looks like grease floating on top of the water..  I looked that up on the internet and it talked about malopsortion problems..  Anyone have this happen to them??  I am not usually constipated.. I am a alternater between constipation and d...  I wish I was just normal!!!   THanks all... sad

You are correct ryleigh but if I'm not mistaken, the malabsorption that is associated with greasy stools is usually from certain digestive organs. I would really suggest that you see your doctor and have him check on your pancreas and your liver. These organs can really be affected by certain illnesses and medications. Please let us know what you find out and please take care.
