but for some reason, i cant go number 1 very easy(pee)who knows what will help? and yes, i drink water ok i had the EXACT same problem i could not pee it was like my prolapse interfered and i could not relax enuff to urinate. it went away after the surgery. what precedure are you having done? i had a ripstein rectopexy abdominal approach. be warned though i have seroiusly suffered since the surgery from SEVERE constipation. make sure you and your dr go over this possibilty. I am 32 and i NEVER had constipation before the surgery. i would like to know how things go for u. GOOD LUCK how did u get rectal prolapse??? Jucyfru it is usually because it is painful to have a bowel movement and the subconscious is why that happens. The surgery will make you sore and it's no picnic. It takes a while to heal, but it is worth it in the end no pun intended. Try relaxing, but its not going to be easy believe me. I will keep you in my prayers dear, and you have a very Merry Christmas. |
