I am 2 weeks post-op (hysterectomy) and dealing with an anal fissure. The nifedipine seems to have helped the muscle spasms, I'm not having them anymore. However, I am voiding many times per day, each time just a small amount, instead of 1-2 larger movements which would be more typical for me. I am trying to figure out if this may be due to the surgery (doc said my intestines could shift lower) or if it's just normal for those suffering with AF.
I seem to be doing well with the fiber and have achieved the desired consistency of stool, so I don't think that is the issue. Unless too much fiber can make you go so much?
Thanks,
Karen
