Ok I'm seeing the surgeon in a couple of weeks. In the meantime I've had a re-tear (well the chronic tear was still there, by re-tear I mean it got bigger) with some blood involved. Not much, but it was there. Normally my chronic AF doesn't bleed (hasn't bled in months on end for example).
But one strange thing: I always have two BMs in the morning when I wake up. They are not VERY painful, but about 1h after the pain starts and lasts until 2-3 pm, peaking around 11am. I guess it's spasms, because I can feel the muscle being REALLY tight. Then the pain subsides and in the evening the muscle is REALLY loose, like no AF at all.
What's even stranger is that if I have a BM in the PM (which is rare, but happens), even if there is a bit of blood, there is no pain AND NO SPASMS after that. It's like the muscle only spasms morning through afternoon, no matter what.
Anyone got a clue why this might be?
ps: nifedipine is used in the AM and PM, but doesn't really help, tried a few days without and it's pretty much the same, tense in the AM, ok in the PM.
pps: also weird, in the PM, even if the BM hurts, the pain goes away almost instantly and doesn't come back. Probably due to the muscle being relaxed?
