Wishing you the best. I too have a rectal prolapse. The GI says I need surgery. The general surgeon says I don't. I had bowel surgery 20 years ago and had a section of my colon removed as the result of an abscess that ruptured. So essentially I had the type of surgery they do for prolapse although for another reason. That's why the surgeon says I don't need to do it again. He feels the prolapse won't get any worse and can be managed medically. The GI wants me to see a colorectal surgeon at USC but I have been putting it off. But after I recovered from that first colectomy (had to have a temporary colostomy because of all my infection from the ruptured abscess) I had wonderfully functioning bowels for quite some time.

Do you have your bed all set up with lots of nice pillows, some comfy nighties and a bedside bell to summon the butler (hee hee). Just think, soon you will be pooping with ease!
