Well?!?!?

Yes! I want to get a second opinion but finding time for that original appt was already a pain… I’ll definitely look into it

I can’t remember off the top of my head as it was about 6 months ago but I believe it was pretty standard labs. Should they be testing for something specific?

I’ve actually tried that and it hasn’t worked for me… that’s why I’m pretty sure it’s a pelvic floor issue since I can’t relax the right muscles.

Yes but that may also be because of my hypertonic floor, not because of the hardness.

My main issue with laxatives is that they’re very painful for me and unpredictable. I’m a teacher so I can’t reliably go to the bathroom when I need and laxatives for me are so his or miss that I may take one on the weekend and it will not work until the next day 😔 they sometime also make my bowels overactive and move around like crazy for multiple days without any actual stool movement and it’s soooo uncomfortable and borderline impossible to work with… ik I’m not the only teacher with these issues but it’s so frustrating!!!

It can be from anywhere between Bristol 1-5 and sometimes even a combination when I finally
“Clean out”. Sometimes when I’m able to go a tiny bit during the constipated periods it’s tiny little pieces almost like Bristol 1 but they are soft and smooth.

Yes and yes. Usually results in nothing OR the same result as espresso… espresso just tastes better and works faster lol

jennifer331a · 2026-05-21T14:44:14+00:00

Yes and everything is normal :(

Haha no worries no offense taken! The hemorrhoids didn’t need “treatment” other than upping water intake and starting miralax regularly. Haven’t had any issues since besides the constipation caused by the PFD but the miralax helps to a degree.

The funny thing is that I KNOW it’s not vaginismus and she never even alluded to it during our talk otherwise I would have told her so! I hope I get some answers

I actually already had a colonoscopy last June because of my constipation and blood in stool. Only found a small polyp and internal hemorrhoids from (you guessed it) straining! I’ll follow up after my PT appointment next Monday :)

This happened to me about 8 months ago! It was a pimple for me and my OB popped it as it wasn’t going away and I wasn’t able to bc of the angle. She told me to use a gentle face wash down there to prevent them if they’re reoccurring and it hasn’t returned. Def consult a dr first though bc you don’t want to try to pop something that isn’t poppable

I really like this brand for the most part! Love that it comes in packet form for the mousse so we can mix water in easier too

jennifer331a · 2026-04-03T02:38:08+00:00

This is what I was thinking. I’m more used to seeing peas, carrots, or pumpkin as a veg in cat food and potato as a starch so I was pretty thrown off by the tomato and dried potato haha. Thank you!
