I have been have stomach and bowel Issues for quite some time now. I have a condition called gastroparesis which is a delayed emptying of stomach contents, a also have SEVERE acid reflux / GERD with regurgitation. Over about the past year I have had a really HARD time going number 2. It hurts tremendously. I have tried stool softener with no relief. I am kinda worried but scared to go to the Dr at the same time. Please help.
This is Everytime I go number 2, sometimes it's works and sometimes it's better than others.

Hi there, have they looked for ulcerative colitis that is a common thing with what you describe about your sluggish bowel , mine was the same and now I'm being treated for it with medication.
I ended going to to ER because it got to a point where had to go but could not go. It was quite embarrassing. She did a rectal exam and discovered that I have fissures within the rectum. They did a CT scan with showed alot of infamation within the colon and rectum. Followed up with me PCP and she ordered for me to have both and upper and lower GI. I go for that procedure on Friday the 31st.
