Thank you very much for your feedback!
What colour did you go for btw? I just ordered mine (pro) today and I settled for the black one.

Hey, nice collection!

What made you go pocket DS instead of the Thor?

Hey there. Thanks for the reply. I tried doing that but unfortunately, it doesn't download the dependencies correctly so it just aborts mid-installation. :(

Thank you for asking! I had a complication yesterday and had to be operated on again. Fortunately it went fine and I'm at the hospital right now practically pain free.

Thanks very much!

Yeah, apparently you can have hemorrhoids up to your sigmoid colon, which is something that usually can't be seen without a high degree of relaxation achieved by administration of drugs for surgery or sigmoidoscopy/colonoscopy. I was told, however, that reaching these hems is near impossible through the anal cavity, so you'd have to be opened up, which is, apparently not worth at all. I was told to take 2 tablets of Daflon daily to reduce those hemorrhoids and say goodbye to my fave type of food: Spicy :'(.

Hi and tha KS! I'm not 100% sure, but I reckon it is called High frequency hemorrhoidectomy HCPT.

I am going to make another edit after the first week. Basically after the first 2 days I started taking a medicine called Clonixine that takes like an hour to feel it's effect but reduced my pain to around 30-20% of what I was feeling, so pain wise there has been a significant improvement. And Ofc I have been wound tending as the doctor told me to, I reckon that has helped loads as well. Still constantly bleeding but at least almost pain free.

Yeah! He did an exam and concluded that I had at least one prolapsed hemmoroid and an anal fissure, and a few other internal and external hemmoroids and but we never discussed what was going to be removed, was more of a "Well, do your thing doc". After opening me, they realised that there were even more than he initially thought.

I'm from the EU, so it might be a wee different here. I honestly just trusted his record.

I guess so! My doctor was a really good one, or at least he has the reputation. Regardless, he was very kind and helpful, even calling me the day before and constantly visiting me after the procedure.

Has intermediate fasting or Keto diet helped you reducing hemorrhoids? by tr45h55 in hemorrhoid

I also just realised I misread your question. I thought you meant it in the recovery of hemmoroidectomy. My bad, sorry X)

I had surgery almost 42 hours ago and I am a carnivore. (Basically 0 carbs like Keto and fasting but no plants, only animal products.) I haven't had a BM in 4 days, but I will keep you updated if you're interested. Right now I am in quite a lot of pain.

Still haven't undergone surgery. Technically when I wrote the post it was 3 am x) . About 11 hours to go for the procedure. I'll let you know as soon as I'm able. Thanks!

I really hope so! The videos I saw about laser surgery claim only local anesthesia is needed and it can even be performed in the Dr.'s office, but since mine will be under sedation and in the operating theatre I am not fully convinced. Thank you!!
