The frequency and urgency have continued as has the discomfort (sometimes big pain) when there is stool in the pouch although there often isn't much when I empty. It reminds me of colitis but the stool is not watery. I'm have difficulty describing it, but there's a sense of swelling towards the tailbone but not as high. (I can't palpate anything from the outside) Just an odd feeling.
I have hydrocortisone suppositories that I've decided to try although it may be a dumb idea. So far they just burn but it's only been one day. If there is inflammation in the rectal cuff, I'm hoping the suppository might help(?!)
I'm hesitant to call my doctor as it's very difficult to get in to see him and I'm not sure I'd any much sense if I did. I know my description is a not very helpful. Bordering on loopy!
