:( ! I can only imagine your apprehension and disappointment and worry 
!!! But, as Tabby says - you have very good doctor and he will figure that out 
!!! I wish he can just give you very strong sedation so you do not have to go through GA for that, but what has to be done - has to be done 
. It is good that your doctor is so thorough and discovered that on time so I am sure that once fixed it will provide you with even faster healing !!!!!!!! Maybe that mass was making extra preassure to your colon all of this time and caused all of those butt problems :roll: !?! Just try to relax as much as you can and now that you can be out of the home take full advantage of that since being alone inside can be very depressing per se , even when we are with no problems at all ! Stay strong buddy - you will get rid of that thing soon and be on the road of complete and forever recovery after that !!!!
You are in our prayers and thoughts always
. seems along time away. but i shall phone mr smiths sec monday morning and explain how thing feel etc, in hope i can be seen sooner. Not much more i can do.
