Re: Please Recommend a Fistula Surgeon (Recto-Vaginal)

PITA, thank you for sharing your story. Sounds like you have been through the ringer! Yes, it is a choice with pelvic repairs to go the gyno route or the colorectal surgeon. Sorry you had such a tough experience.

Thanks, Laura!
I have looked into the Cleveland Clinic because I know their reputation. But there is an overwhelming number of doctors . Did you like your surgeon? Would you be willing to share his or her name?

Thanks!

Your stools are narrow because your passage is narrow. Our days of rectum sized and shaped poops are over!

Re: Reversal Log: Experience,Problems, Q & A's

Jim, I know we are all different, but I did find the Metamucil increased my gas and trips to the bathroom even though it bulked up my stool.

Re: On surgeon's advice, going to try the - gulp - daily enema
