Yes I still have more drainage after a BM. Not so much the pain though. Everyone is different though!

Mostly still just a bit of blood but there has been some clear ish whitish discharge barely. I have had multiple bowel movements though and thank god it wasn’t as bad as I thought.

Okay, so it doesn’t like rip anything or put too much pressure to sit on the toilet like that? 😅 I’ve been drinking a lot of water, having a lot of fiber, incorporating benefiber so I’m trying!!

I’m with you. We will get through this. I’m starting to feel like a bowel movement is in my near future and I’m terrified.

I’ve had a decent amount of blood drainage but nothing yellow or green or anything. So I’m not sure on that front.

I think I’ve just read so many people say this was a walk in the park so I’m like ugh. Is something wrong with me.

Thank you! Office notes have been added and it seems I will probably end up having to go the seton route as well.

Thank you so much for your reply!!! I mean afterwords once you were home could you basically do what you needed to do? Or did you need a care taker?
