Using the toilet 3 x an hour with urgency, however at night I am able to sleep without interuption. I'm taking benefiber, lomotil, and probiotics.

The things I'm struggling with are-
*The acid level in my output is so string it burns like crazy
* my output each bowel movement is very small. The constancy is like toothpaste but flat and ribbon like
* my cancer was very low in my rectum, I experience pain with gas and every BM at the surgery site
