It seems one day at a time never rang truer than with this malady. I've taken to using a bit of vaseline before a bm and it helps greatly. The challenge is to keep things smooth, which is especially an issue if you go three to four or so times a day. I've tried to limit anxiety by looking at successes and trying my best to keep a health diet with just enough, not too much fibre, but that seems to change daily at times. What works for a few days doesn't seem to always work well and especially so if it is too hot outside. I just keep telling myself it is an annoyance, and a very painful one at times, but at least it is not a terminal illness. It is depressing as I would just like to go to have a morning bm or two or three and be done with it until the next day, but we're all rigged differently. If anyone has figured out how to just go in the morning that would be a great help!!!!!!! For what it is worth, I'm thinking of all of you and hope everyone gets increasingly better over time!
