I'd get it out at all costs, but that's me. You're going to have to. Have you heard of Nupercaine or Nupercainal ointment? I'm not sure of the name, but it's available OTC at the pharmacy and it will numb your pain, before and after BM. It's used mainly for hems but hey, if I were you, I'd want some handy since you seem to be quite scared of the pain (we've all been there).
I've never used the glycerin suppositories, so I really don't know what they do, but it seems like glycerin is pretty inert stuff so I'm not sure it would act like a stimulant. I think it can't hurt.
