I also strain every time I go to the bathroom because I feel like nothing comes out if I don't and I am trying to stop straining, but it's so difficult for me not to.
Has anyone had symptoms or fissures that could give me some advice or help?
I had my takedown about 2 months ago now and it has not been fun. First, the doctors said I had pouchitis and I went on flagyl which made me very sick and lose a lot of weight because of the nausea (which I had been on flagyl a number of times and not been sick so that was weird). The flagyl made my frequency go down however. Now, lately I have been having a lot of blood and even clots coming out on the toilet paper and in the bowl as well. I first thought I was having a prolapsed j pouch, but dismissed that and then I thought it was a hemorrhoid because I could sort of feel a bump when I would strain or go to the bathroom. When I went to my surgeon the other day, she said she thinks that it is a fissure and wants to do a scope to make sure. It's so painful and I go about 8 times a day so I feel like it can never heal if that's what it is
