we're in sync :love:

Woah what….. once I shit out a federalist paper. Brothers?

If this forum has proven one thing, it is that it brings people together in all kinds of ways. Brothers.

been regularly shitting between 3 and 4 PM on the dot every day for about 3 weeks now. I love it. Thanks.

i'd like to see your bottom

why deprive your other four senses?

every day i wake up and i need to sit on the toilet for like an hour

you constipated showllad

u got to take a poo softner

poo softener change my life

i have chronic constipato, irritable bowel, lactose intolerant

prone to constipation which can make u need to shit many times per day, but when u do it's not a lot. can also lead to needing to sit for a long time (for me it's i start to wipe and then that stimulation of the anal cause me to feel a need to poo again)

u better get it fast shwloawd, dont get a hemmroid like me from sitting on the potty chair too long

also did a high volume enema when it was real bad. very cleansing

people act like enemas are a big deal or icky or last resort kind of thing

if u ask me in addition to a bidet everyone should have an enema in their bathroom and use it like maybe once a month minimum, more if u got poo problems like our deer shoooloard

word of warning dont do an enema when your on your anal period, wait until the heavy to moderate flow lessens to a light bleed, but if you must do it, use a looooot of lubrication

i do take stool softener powder

usually about 90% of it passes within the first moments of me sitting down

it's the last part that takes a long time to pass. i know those turds are up there. sometimes i can trick them into coming out if i get up and i'll almost instantly feel the urge to go again.

Dude see a doctor. Sounds like an impaction. In the meantime get u an enema and someone u trust to put it in u

literally every doctor i've seen has basically said "hmmmm sounds like IBS which as you know from what you've been told by every previous doctor you've had, is just something that you need to learn to manage and live with"

"managing it" meaning eating better and exercising more or something

which i am doing

i've asked for procedures, anything at all, at the absolute very least merely to find out what the fuck is going on in there, but i've been told that referrals are usually only given in cases where the condition is life threatening. besides it's probably just IBS, manage it and live with it, i guess until something life threatening shows up in my ass

one doctor I saw said my IBS was caused by anxiety, and if i managed my anxiety then it would help with my IBS

MOTHER FUCKER, my anxiety is caused by IBS, amongst a squillion different other things, almost all of which i am in no position to manage, including, apparently, my IBS

but yeah sure treating anxiety is much easier than treating IBS that hasn't killed me yet

why are doctors such buttholes about poop and how and why we poop? this is my experience too is they say hmm did u try softener hmm did u try and stop to think maybe try not to be too anxious? its like they dont want to explore my pooper as if there isnt science to be found up in there

he has been a bit cagey ever since i moaned someone else's name the last time he checked my prostate

I had bad IBS for a long time and as a kid I got the same response from doctors. They do have medicine for it and when I saw a doc as an adult I got some. I had IBS-D so I took hyoscyamine. Not sure what they'd do for people with mixed type or IBS-C, but it did help a lot. I also had an ulcer. Which they found when they did a colonoscopy/endoscopy, which they should absolutely be doing for you. They cannot rule out IBDs without doing those and those are generally progressive and can actually be serious without treatment. It is PROBABLY not one of those but I can't believe they wouldn't scope you to rule them out.

Mine definitely was anxiety-related and I still have it a bit, but just because it's caused by something else and won't kill you doesn't mean you can't treat the terrible symptoms. Maybe they just treat it more seriously in the states? When I've had recurrences they've even scoped me again to make sure it was still just IBS.

visited my therapist for the first time in a few months and she agrees, shit's fucked

some days i shit like five times before 1pm

recently i have been telling myself, when the urge strikes, "no, you don't need to poop" and then i go do something else and then i don't poop.

just had a massive one

rare AM

very clean. 3 wipes.

:confused:

don't confuse head me

there is such a thing as very clean slides

the impossible is possible tonight

what the if the song...

don't make me type it
