i appreciate the insight and advice ...i'm actually surprised at myself for having such anxiety about the bm considering the pain i've endured these past 4 months, but i may have been fortunate when it came to bathroom time...during this fissure experience i've never had pain while "going", at all, it always came on about 2 hours after and just kept on most of the day...that's one of the reasons i guess i'm nervous about that part of the post op, actually my crs informed me that the tag removal will cause me more distress than the actual lis, and honestly i'm glad she was straight forward with me, i definitely want to be prepared for the worst, so at least i won't think somethings wrong, i will make sure i do the breathing and relax through it, sounds like a smart plan. i also plan on continuing with the high fibre regiment, i'm so used to it now and got it down to a science when it comes to how much i need to make things come out smoothly. Wow..really i'm so glad to be here telling people about my problem who get it and understand...this is somewhat therapeutic and much appreciated. i will keep in touch and hope to be a source of support to others after my surgery. Thanks and best wishes!
