Why not condense all answers into one post and save time and space...

I'm fairly confident with this because 1) He explained it well to me, and 2) He showed me pictures. My other GI is back in Philly, and I'm starting to get annoyed with them beause they didn't provide my records to the doctor that did my colonoscopy, even though both I and the doctor called them.

The reason he isn't sure is primarily the age issue. He suspects it isn't prolapse because I'm likely too young for it. The suppositories are supposed to reduce the inflamation and smooth out the lining to make my BMs more manageable. It is a treatment that would be discontinued eventually once the problem gets corrected. If that doesn't work, then we'll consider the possibility of prolapse.

Oh, about those suppositories, I only say ouch because I remember the suppository before the colonoscopy and that hurt, though that may have just been because of the night before (ouch ouch ugh ouch ouch SCREAM pant pant ouch)

Thanks for all your support and I'll keep you posted as the suppositories keep coming. Or going, as the case may be.
