Rectal Pain

Jelly, just wanted to respond to your post, although I don't know anything about your problem. How are you doing today?

Are you sure the nausea isn't from the stomach bug that you had? Are you still dehydrated? Could it be related to things you took for the virus?

I hope someone can answer your question about the rectal pain. When did your surgeon say it was normal, how long ago? If it's a lot worse, you might want to call your surgeon or gi.... not the weekend anymore...

Hope you feel better soon.

Do you have to go through the nurse to get to the dr? I can email my docs directly, although some are better about responding than others (in my case, the female ones always respond, often quite promptly, and the male ones are sporadic).

If it keeps staying bad or getting worse, be more insistent.... I know it's hard to do, but if it ends up that something is wrong, then they'll be upset that you didn't make a bigger deal earlier.....

I have not seen people writing much here about rectal pain just getting worse and worse....

Hope things get better soon. Hang in.
