I took the capsule yesterday, and had 2 bowel movements both yesterday and today, granted small an one medium, both narrow. So i have some questions

1. Is possible to still fail if you have bowel movements?

2. Does moving bowels without laxatves, but its only small-sometimes a little bigger mean u have severe constipation?

3. Does failing mean u have to have surgery done as the best option?

4. Do you see the markers in the toilet(sorry to be nasty but this has been on my mind

I took the sitz marker and never had a bowel movement in the 7 days I had xrays. I never saw any of the markers. Mine were spread through the colon and no where near the rectum. I think parastolisis moves the rings along with or without a bowel movement.

If you're having bowel movements with no laxatives, then that is a good sign.

Ok thanks for answering because im really nervous. I can move stool but not regular moving stool, only a little and sometimes a little bigger.

Ive been very worried lately. I do have bowel movements everyday but idk if its from food i ate before. I also have this feeling when i need to go, but dont. Rectum is irriated sometimes. When stool comes out its small or skinny and long. Dont know if im passing the markers or if they still all in me. Just alot of anxiety that im trying to kick but cant.

Ok heres what im observing today. I pass small hard rock kinda stool(sometimes its longer and thin) 2 times a day for 3 days since taking the pill, but heres the issue. When i pass, its like it slips out. The feeling of passing stool is different than usual. I have lower back pain everytime i pass and rectal pain. I feel like im half pushing and its half coming out by itsself..

I dont mean to annoy anyone with much bigger issues im just trying to seek some advice cuz this is my first time going through something like that. Even though i passed stool i feel pike ima fail anyways

Just be calm, it will be okay. There's no reason for surgery, even if you fail the test. It sounds like you have divided moves and that sounds to me like pelvic floor dysfunction.

Why did you have to take the transit marker test?/

Constant constipation, abdominal pain and such. Just wanted to get all the test untill i find out whats wrong. I use the restroom 6-7 times today with small bms and rectal burning.

Ok a little earliar i felt near my anus(sorry to be so gross) and it feel like fleshy soft lump is near the right of my anal opening! I had pain passing stool, a burning type pain that comes and goes even when im not using the rest room. It just seems like symptons are getting worse and idk whats going on. Ill call the doctor later today(eastern time) i have to go wed to xray for these sitz markers and bowel series. Hopefully they figure it out then.

Today i tried to pass stool and it cane out of my anus but its like something was blocking it and the stool had to be broken up in order to pass through! The stool literally was coming out but i couldnt pass it unless piece broke off. I really dnt know whats going on

An update. I had 2 longer skinny bowel movements yesterday and it seemed like the "lump" that felt like blockage was gone, then later on i tried to have a bowel movement but felt that lump come back. I really dont know whats going on but i go to the doctor for the bowel series and xrays for sitz marker test tommorow. Hopefully everything gets explained
