basically, i've had an af for over 3 years and a very large skin tag too, the first 2 years it was on and off and i was able to handle it. this year has been horrific. constant pain every time i go toilet.
what i don't understand is that i'm eating well, fruit veggies, lots of water. i've cut out all the bad stuff. unfortunately stool softners have no effect on me. my poo is always hard at the beginning, and then comes out normally. also i've tried GTN and ultroproct. i felt the gtn would have worked if the poo was small and soft, but it hasn't been.
i have a colorectal surgery in a few months, but that seems like a million years away.
just don't know what to do.
