That sucks. Doctors can be so frustrating.

I have an appt. next Tuesday to see a colon/rectal surgeon. This is my first appt. I am wondering if I have some kind of prolapse...that's what you have, right? What tests did the Dr. do to diagnose you? Could he tell right away from a basic "exam"? I'm super nervous about going, but I also can't wait because I want some help! I hope I get a good surgeon who knows what he's talking about and can figure out if there is something wrong. Is there anything your Dr. recommended for you to do until surgery...any specific way to eat, etc.? Do you know any details about the surgery...recovery time, etc.? Thanks for any info. I'm pretty clueless about this, but am hoping a surgeon will be able to help.
