My poor asshole =(
So I started taking acidophilus pearls a few weeks ago. They work great. They don't make me have to poo often, but they do make me more regular and thus make it less of a pain (literally) to go. Unfortunately, I'm also taking Ritalin. One of the side effects is constipation or diarrhea. Because I am chronically constipated, it's obvious which one it would be for me. This morning I was standing there washing dishes when all of a sudden I had The Urge.
"Sweet!" I thought, excited to go because it's been so long since I've been this regular. So I went into the bathroom, pulled down my pants, sat down, and started to go to town.
The sheer amount of unexpected pain... I can't even. This was the first time in a long time that I actually almost cried my way through a poo. It doesn't help that I have been battling a pretty nasty bout of hemorrhoids for the past several months. Every time I had to strain my guts out, which was often, I sent up a silent prayer that my asshole would make it through this alive. Luckily, it did, albeit in a world of pain. I put some Prep H ointment and it stung a bit when I put it on but now it's feeling a little better. I just hope I can get over this fucking bout of hemorrhoids and poo normally and pain-free just like everybody else. =(
