aw Tabby, I'm sorry you're still having problems. Do you still use the anoheal? If you dont, and if you can use it after botox, then it might be worth it? I'm using nitro, just of a night and that seems to really help. When is your next appointment with your crs?

Thanks Val
I have some anoheal in the fridge from lastime but dare use it, remember I had that sensitivity issue !! I haven’t used it in months maybe it would be OK !
Mmm..... ponder ponder !!
LOL… CRS chance would be a fine thing Val !! - General surgeon check up in December ! Unless things get bad bad and I will stalk him to his home and demand to be seen
If I want to see a CRS on the NHS the wait is 6-12 months and possibly longer for an OP
The other option is a private consultation like you said, this is a fast track you say ??….I need a back up plan !!
Hope you are having a good day Val

OMG-Tabby-that isn't a cigar-it's a dog bone!!!!! I think Molly should be at least 6 months old before I let her start smoking!

LOL...O how funny .... A dog bone shaped as a cigar
Great pic !

It's suppossed to be shaped like a toothbrush with a bone at the end. Please don't turn me into the Humane Society!!!

Oh it's a bone with a toothbrush at the end...it makes sence now. I could never figure out why the greenies were shaped like that.

And why am I having more formed bigger BMs …can anyone answer this ? is this a good thing ?
It was a close call this morning I feel like I have given birth from my butt !!
I am just as confused Corsi but I do know this healing part is going to take some time and that Botox is probley doing more than we think !

I had the same experience...it was like I didn't know my butt anymore...had problems pushing. For the rest of what you write - I so can relate to it. How many weeks is it since you had Botox? It's 5 weeks since I had mine. Since I am a bit incontinent I am sure it works.... I want more of it, but I dread the needles.
Isn't it ironic? We have more formed BM, and they cause pain???
I haven't used nitro for 5 weeks because the CRS said so.

PS: Isn't tea dehydrating? I love tea and coffee, but have had to settle for 1/2 a cup of coffee in the morning? I have even taken cheese off my menu ( only 4 small slices in the evening). It has paid off, the last few days my pooh has been better.

Tabby & Corsi -
I don't know if either of you remember some of my old posts, but after LIS I had these same issues and still do sometimes. My BMs can be so large now that they cut my sphincter and I don't know why. Sometimes I can not believe such a large object came out of my bum. Sometimes it would hurt, and somestimes I am shocked that a large turd causes no pain.

Are you cutting back on the fiber any, Jen? They can sure bulk up your stool!!!
Sometimes it would hurt, and somestimes I am shocked that a large turd causes no pain. Funny how there can be no rhyme or reason with AF!!!

Yeah, its like getting these random shocks with no way to control it. It can make you feel helpless.
