Tim -
Hope your still feeling well!
About 90% of my pain occured during a BM, about 10% always occured right after or at random times. Lars actually posted an interesting thread today on the type of fissure pain people deal with in the general fissure discussion forum. Take a look at it! It seams many people do not have pain during a BM like you, just pain afterwards. I guess I am the odd ball when it comes to this!
Also, my BM's are also thinner. I think this is due to me going to the bathroom more often. Back in my pre-butt problem days, I would have a BM once every 3 days or so and they would be very large.
