Constant urges with a pouch?

Hello all.
For the past two weeks I have been dealing with constant urges to go. Day and night. I am getting little sleep. I have to work in 100 degree heat and halfway thru my shift I am drained... Absolutely drained but I keep pushing no pun intended... To get thru my shift.
I was just in to see my surgeon awhile back.. Month ago.... And she did a digital stretch and exam and said all looked really good and healthy. The stretch.... I assume it was because I told her I had a problem going...because it was rather painful and I could tell she was doing something... You know... Not like this with the urges. I guess I have to go back but thought I would bring it up here.
With the constant urge to go about one out of 10 time is there enough to come out in get relief for about an hour and it's back to constant.
I have no blood in my stool. But it goes from diarrhea to small pieces. I take lomotal so I don't expect solids and diarrhea is just fine as long as it comes out. Just wondering if anyone here has gone thru this and what was the problem.
One thing is I am weaning off hydrocodone. I am sure that has something to do with it. Maybe.
Thanks.
Richard.
