Hi ya,

No need to keep apologizing in advance for possibly offending someone - lots of people have asked bowel/digestive health questions, and if this thread should offend someone, they can stop reading! The forums are for people like you to get help - and you phrased everything as 'delicately' as you could. At no time did I sense that you were trying to be rude or shock people - just an honest seeking for help.

I hope you will be feeling better soon
