Wow, sounds like your gp definitely has never had a fissure! Stay strong, this stupid thing is so unpredictable, maybe the six weeks is what your body needs. Do you get some time off for the holidays to relax? I really hope so, you certainly deserve it. And it's funny - I'm finding the spasms worse when I'm standing! Ugh sometimes I wonder what we did to deserve this!

Well so far today has been okk pain around a 2/3 but again no BM so that's probably why.
GG...not really I dont work the 3 main days as my son has aspergers and like me to be at home those days.
My worse pain is when I stand still it feels like my whole body is entered on my anus and is on fire and is spamming like mad....but not when I haven't been to loo it's just a burning then lol.
I'm hoping that's all it is that I just need so em extra time due to my other issues lol

Right well the colon is making really bad noises and I'm sick of having to force out wind...really hoping I can hold out till the morning for a BM and praying it's a nice one and just the one as I really don't want a bad day after having 2 decent ones....I don't mind going to the toilet once it's when I go 4 times an hour that it just kills me...
Fingers crossed

Had a rough 2 nights. Night before last didnt sleep a wink. Last night was a little better but still woke up a few times. This morning had a BM at 06:20, between a 3 and a 4 but very thin, I guess the sphincter is pretty tense considering. Put some GTN on but the pain is still around a 3 and I feel my bowels have not completely emptied or just still have alot of gas. Other than that, I'm ok. Cant walk around too much so Im going to try stay behind my desk today. Spoke to a girl yesterday who is participating in the strike. She said it may end today or take another week and she understands how I feel about the delays.... said this while drinking her coffee.... lol

Oh dear that's not good at all. But at least it's gone down to a 3. Hopefully it's just gas and you don't have to go again. Nice of her to be understanding whilst drinking her coffee pain free.
I still haven't been to the toilet yet dreading it when I do though as its been 2 days now lol
