Hi there,
I hope everybody is doing well on their healing process! It is surprising to see that many people have similar stories about AF. I ll try to tell my story shortly.
I have been suffering from AF for over 2 years without knowing it is an AF actually. I thought it was hemorrhoid. I think i got this becoz of the often-occured constipation as a result of unbalanced diet, lack of water consumption and so on. I had times which i didnt go for a BM for 3-4 days! Imagine!!!
I am having painfull BMs, bleedind, sleepless nights becoz of pain, itchy feeling, being hell scared of going to washroom (leading more severe constipation) and so on. I guess you al are familiar with these problems. Such a pain in the a** eh?!
Well, after i read informations on websites, i changed my diet which has high-fibre, lots of water, no alcohol, flax seed supplement, even broccoli (i'd never think that i'd like to buy broccoli as i am a meat-lover person). At first they seemed to help; however, i didnt need a BM for 3-4 days again till last night! So, finally, i decided to go to a doctor today.
Well, she wasnt a specialist in my concern, it was just a walk-in clinic. I told her my situation and she confirmed me. She prescribed me on "ratio-PROCTOSONE" as both ointment and suppositories; also "Lax A Day" and "Docusate Sodium 100 mg". I am really wondering how i will manage to put those suppositories "in there"!! She told me to use those medications for 2-3 weeks. If it doesnt seem to help, she will refer me to a specialist. (btw, how are those specialists called?)
We will see what the tie will bring for me. I REALLY HOPE it will be ok. Becoz this is really lowering the life quality and makes you go through the hell. In my languagae there is a saying " May God doesn't let this happen even to my enemy". I totally agree that on AF issue.
It is so good to know that i am alone on this path. Thanks to everyone for being here and support!!!
p.s. English is my second language, so i might have done some mistakes. Sorry for that!
Hope everyone has a good, painless day!
