Does this problem sound familiar to anyone? I've been having some real sharp pains that I think is gas, with the feeling of having to go but nothing comes out. I strain and if I'm lucky will have some liquid with bits of solid stool. If I wipe, I can see blood, not a lot, but just enough to make the paper red. I've been on the generic brand of Librax for a number of years and cut the amount down from 6 or 8 to 4, since I hate being on the stuff. It leaves me with a dry mouth and horrid breath. I've also started using suppositories with the suggestion of my doctor, who felt that I needed them. Last night we went out and for the first time, didn't take any Lomotil all day, thinking that perhaps that was limiting the amount of movement. While we were out I had the pains again, and held it back until we returned home. My underwear was wet when I got home with the liquid that I couldn't hold back. I was finally able to go but still wonder what this could be all about. Any suggestions or ideas?
