    I'm nearing 10 years out of treatment and I still never know what shape is going to come out.  Something different every day, but I just saw my colorectal doctor a week ago and all was well.

    Mine still vary, only six

    Mine still vary, only six months post treatment. The one consistency is that I've had a groove in my stool, since before I was even diagnosed. I think it's a pappilae, but I'm getting an exam tomorrow. Everything else has changed frequently. You might have swelling still, or scar tissue.

    Seeing My Radiologist Later This Morning....

    ...should have not drank that Hot Tea too late...problems getting to sleep...butt crack sore. Took an extra strength Tylenol. Post 41 Days now....slow healer and a year older 57. Birthday was the 14th. Over all the pain much better than the whole last year but still mild in nature and not totally gone. Time...time...time...
