I have been dealing w/this since end of 2005. I have endured a lot of pain but this is one pain I don't know how much more I can take. it is bad enough if I only went to bathroom once a day but we all know that is not the case. No matter what I do I go either way very loose stool/ not quite thick enough to come out. from going back/forth my rectum is a mess. starting to happen more often. I can take one mild pain pill and it wks some, tylenol does not work at all. I don't want to live on pain pills plus it seems they are starting not to wk as much. Not getting any answer from any doctor. It is starting to really affect my emotional being. Nobody not even my husband really knows the pain b/c I don't holler/complain about it. Not sure what to do/not sure how much longer I can deal w/this. dealing w/it for too many yrs. thought last doctor had the answer when he said cuffitis and other things but didn't change my situation. well I am so tired now and in pain. hope I made sense and look forward to some advice.
