Saw one at Lowes today, and was wondering if that might add some relief...

    we lived in Europe when I was a teen
    we used the bidets there as "foot" baths. It was a great relief!

    Radiation Proctitis
    (At least, that is what I think it is) is kicking my **** (no, really, my ****) :)

    If buying a bidet would provide some relief, I will rush back to Lowes or Home Depot right away...

    I guess that would feel a little bit softer and nicer than bending over and getting your star cleaned by a fire house, LOL

    yes!
    I still vividly remember the pain after radiation for rectal cancer -- and that was more than 7 years ago. I didn't have a bidet but it would have been very useful. I do remember squating on the floor, in the cold, soaking my butt in a basin filled with warm water and something that stained my posterior purple! (but did bring some relief). Would have been much more civilized with a bidet or something similar.
