I think that's one of the problems that if we aren't in much pain before the op then it is actually quite a trauma to the area and can send some of us back into full on pain. I think you will probably feel better tomorrow after a decent sleep Hun.
I'm sure the first BM won't be as bad as you expect

Yeah that's true you feel like you have had a major set back! Thank you I hope so the morphine I got this afternoon is helping take the edge off but doesn't seem to last very long seem to need it every 3 hours I'm hoping I won't have to do that all through the night lol

Jut go easy and don't get constipated!

Thank you, I've been taking molaxole each night and magnesium so hopefully will keep things soft!

I just kept taking a stool softener and miralax like I was before surgery and it's been good.

Oh good do you think I should maybe take a bit of lactalose too on top or will I be ok with just the molaxole?

That I have no clue, just depends on your body. I've been taking miralax and one 250mh stool softener per day, and still taking the percocets daily and haven't been constipated. I feel like even if my crap was hard it wouldn't even matter pain wise because I've been having such an easy time with going. I honestly haven't gone this easy and fast in probably 10 years

Well I have just had my first bm and can say that it wasn't painful at all! I'm so happy right now, just soreness and stinging on the stitches but that's it I'm shocked I expected it to be horrendous!!

Does anybody who had dissolvable stitches have like scraggly bits hanging from them? I'm just wondering if that's normal and there not coming out? Also how long did it take for them to dissolve?

Hello I’m in southern ca and wanted to know who your doctor was. I am recovering from a fissure but now my internal hemorrhoids are flaring up and never heard of that shot treatment. Thanks for your help. I hope you still get notifications here.
